Introduction

Groups.drupal.org facilitates collaboration for collections of Drupal fans everywhere. We host local meetup groups like Toronto and South Africa. We host working groups like Views developers and High performance. These groups each get a home page where they can post. Those posts are offered via email and RSS to those who wish to subscribe. The posts are tagged for interesting browsing.
