Summary

  • Building an active user group
  • Organise workshops and talks where we can all share and learn skills
  • Monthly events where we can bring our projects demo them and / or get help

Events

Read the report on our 1st Event


Next event (date selection for 1st Workshop/Usergroup) is at TBA


Skills

Skills that the group has or are happy to share.

Training

Training will be determined by the needs of the user group meetings. Members of our group will offer mentoring, though we might find some kind of trade system (skill-share, beers, travel-cost...). We need to be able to provide a mentor during sessions to help those who have difficulty getting off the ground - without tying the mentors up too much. Beginners will help each other and when progress will take over some part of the training.

Each project should be listed here, to source help and document what they have done/learned: if not documented directly it does not exist.
