Hot off the heals of DrupalCon, a number of Drupal'Govies are trying to figure out what's next. With the release of OpenPublic, there is a unique opportunity to tackle some of our more complex issues with an unprecedented way in sharing code, modules, content types and now APPS!!!
FYI, when I'm talking about a "summit," I'm describing a day/s that are mixture between a hackday, unconference, and a "con." Check out this summary < http://groups.drupal.org/node/98784 >.
With this in mind, we are trying to outline a number of key dates to hosts Drupal4Gov & OpenPublic Summits. Originally, I'm thinking that there should be one in DC that surrounds Drupal with in a National Government, and another one that is outside of DC that focuses on state and municipal use.
I'm also thinking that we should have some type of framing conversation at Drupal Government Days in Brussels. Sometime around the start of May, we should have our first conversation here in the Americas.
Thoughts?
