Your Name
Enter a paragraph or two expressing your agenda for the coming year.
Speaker/Presentation
Beth Lynn Eicher will present on "Open Source Community in the Age of Participation"
This presentation is influenced by Jono Bacon's "Art of Community" book: http://www.artofcommunityonline.org/ Mrs. Eicher will share insight from her 10 years experience in leadership in this Linux user group and the Ohio LinuxFest.
Linux User Groups continue to exist while Linux becomes ubiquitous and simplistic. Since the open source software we enjoy has grown to be more inclusive, user communities must do so as well. As an example, Mrs. Eicher will explain how anyone, especially those new to open source, can make a bunch of folks into a community. Examples as how to get involved as a non-elected leader in an organization such as WPLUG will be discussed.
