Organizing events and install fests is just fine, but I am curious to
know how many of you attending the DGPLUG workshop will actually turn
into _regular__contributors_ to free software projects? Will you?
 
I'm already into development. I'm working with "One Laptop Per Child" (OLPC).

The DGPLUG workshop is an add-on for me this summer. I'm quite aware of many things that are part of this training. But yes, there also are many things I was unaware of. One step leads to another; when I came acrosss this IRC-based workshop, I got two of my friends also to join in. I consider this also as contribution. As you can see, for me, contribution is not restricted only to coding.
Well, this has put me to think: Is promoting Open Source in any form or through any kind of event not counted as contribution to the community?
Would love to read your thoughts.

Cheers!
