After discussing with various WWU and #drupal-seattle folk, we've decided to kick off the Bellingham Drupal Users Group or.. bhamDug. or something to that effect. I know quite a few drupalists who can't really commute to Seattle or Vancouver, and much like the Bellingham Linux Users Group, there is a thriving community around here.

So if you live in Skagit or Whatcom Counties, or just wanna hear whats going on up here, join up on the new bellingham group:
http://groups.drupal.org/bellingham

I'm hoping that with enough of a crowd, we'll be able to be an active part of the PNW drupal summits.

Hey everybody!

So currently there are three Drupal channels for Pacific Northwest cities - #drupal-portland, #drupal-seattle and #drupal-vancouver. Right now there is a lot of overlap between these channels - people who hang out in two or three, but a lot of the time the individual channels are pretty dead. Additionally, since the Drupal Summit last year, there seems to be more of a broad community feeling between all the groups than there has in the past. So I was thinking maybe we should just do away with the three channels and form a new #drupal-pnw channel. It would bring more of us together and for many remove the need to join two or three channels individually. Local-only discussions could still happen on the groups, as it does already really.

Thoughts anyone? I'd love to hear them!
