After talking to many community organizers we have heard consistent feedback that they would like better collaboration between organizers and the Go project. We are forming the Community outreach Working Group (CWG) to help support these community efforts.
The mission of the CWG is to act as a conduit between the broader Go community, it’s organizers and the Go project.

The CWG leadership represents the Go project in these efforts.

If you’d like to get involved, we encourage you to comment on the issue that interests you or submit an issue yourself!
