This informal session is to carry on the discussion from the end of my presentation on in vps.net yesterday. At the end, a lot of people had questions and wanted to see more, but we didn't have enough time to fit them all in. If we can get this session in the schedule, I'll be around to answer any questions.

In this BoF we would like to exchange ideas and experiences in several different areas, including:

• Current situation of Drupal Community in Austria

• Increase public awareness regarding Drupal in Austria and regarding potentials of Drupal Community in Austria in particular

As an open source platform and content management system (CMS) for building dynamic web sites, Drupal is establishing itself as a leader among social software solutions for governmental, intergovernmental, and nongovernmental organizations. Having already gained a small but significant share of the domestic and worldwide public sector CMS market, the solution appears on-track for continued growth.

From the panel description:

Working with Drupal brings the power of its community to work for you. But it also involves you in that community in ways that you might not expect. We'll cover some of the hidden costs of bringing Drupal into your organization, plus the resources you will need in order to keep your project sustainable.

This will feature lively panel discussion covering best practices for Drupal contributions maintainers and the rights and responsibilities of Drupal users.

Topics that we will cover:

• What are the rights and responsibilities of Open-Source developers?
