What Boston Gave WordPress, and What WordPress Gave Boston

The original team behind WCBos (Kurt, John, Jake, Erick, Amanda and Daisy) have been discussing how to mark the 5th Anniversary. We’d like to do a lighthearted and inspiring talk about how far the Boston WP community has come (through the meetup and camp), but also what its meant to various people in the community, including ourselves. There are some mind boggling stories to be told. So the talk is about what the community has put into WordPress and what WordPress has given us.

We’re still yammering about the right format- whether its a panel or an actual talk, but we’ll be soliciting stories from the community to tell. We really don’t intend to make this about ourselves, but rather about the somewhat extraordinary way WordPress has transformed the lives of people in the Boston community. Its a “thank you”.
