WebmakerCommunity

This is a list of people who are teaching/organizing webmaker style classes and willing to put up with a tiny bit of pain in beta testing some of Mozilla's organized webmaker efforts.

Let Michelle know (mlevesque AT mozillafoundation.org) if you think there are other groups who would be perfect for this sort of thing.
