DESCRIPTION
Drupal is much more than just a piece of software that you download. Whether you are a newbie, expert, coder, designer, or an end user, we all have an impact on the ecosystem where the sum is greater than its parts. We'll take a look at the whole picture, the players in the game, and how you can have more impact than you think.TRANSCRIPT

“It’s really the Drupal community and not so much the software that makes the Drupal project what it is. So fostering the Drupal community is actually more important than just managing the code base.”
- Dries Buytaert

This attitude is prominent throughout the top people in Drupal(quote from Dries interview about 2 years ago)

Do-ocracy: the person who does it gets the job. You don’t need to be an “expert”Also remember that other people before tried their best - don’t bitch at their effort, try to help make it better

Communicationit goes both ways, but you need to initiate contact with others or they won’t know you’re there- virtual and live methods (live is important for context and makes online comm better)
