Recap of Goals/Scope:
Marketing the WordPress Community: this subgroup feel strongly that the community is a very big selling point of the software, and promoting some of the things that are coming out of the community would raise awareness and encourage adoption of the software; that could include raise awareness about accessibility or internationalization advancements, or even helping local groups with marketing materials or resources for their community. (Read about the other marketing subgroups in The Four Horsemen of WordPress.org Marketing.)

We briefly reviewed our WCEU Contributor Day goals, and reminded people about the meeting change poll but focused on one project for today’s meeting.
We talked about what a contributor is. A contributor is someone who invites friends to Meetups, volunteers at a WordCamp, or part of make.wordpress.org teams. We worked on the WordPress Contributor Campaign call to action. This will be Part 2 of our WordPress.TV Testimonials Campaign.
