How to Start a LUG?
How to start a Liferay User Group (LUG)?
Be passionate about being a local LUG organizer
Contact Developer Relations team (developer-relations@liferay.com) and provide information about LUG.
Proposed LUG name
The LUG’s region and the main city
The LUG’s common interest and the reason for the group to exist (e.g. “Liferay backend developers”, “WeDeploy users”, “meetings for local partners and customers”)
Organizer’s contact information
E-mail addresses
Meetup accounts
Liferay Community Chat accounts
Developer Relations team will evaluate the request and create the group on Meetup.
Provided Meetup accounts will be upgraded to co-organizers on meetup.com which will allow them to fully manage their group.
Provided Liferay Community Chat accounts will be invited to the lug-organizers private channel.
Provided e-mail addresses will be automatically subscribed to the LUG newsletter.
From that moment you’ll have 3 months to reach and maintain the minimal requirements for a LUG.
Minimal requirements for LUGs
Have at least two co-organizers, one of which must not be employed by or have a direct affiliation with a Liferay Partner company.
Maintain at least 20 members.
Organize at least one event per month with at least 10 people attending.
