In its relatively short history, CiviCRM has had a huge impact on the CRM options available to non-profits. It has provided a high quality tool for managing contacts, email lists, donations, and other basic functions.

We can talk about what people are doing with it, ways to get involved in its development, or anything else the group desires.

It's no secret that Drupal can be intimidating to new users and to those less-familiar with content management systems.

Use in actual sites will be demonstrated, and there will be time at the end for everyone to share their favorite "killer module" for usability.
