Project Groups

One of the unique aspects of the CCNx project is our support of sub projects.  You are free to take advantage of this and form your own project group.  This can provide you a quick way to enage other community members, collaborate, and get feedback.  It also gives you a public placeholder for your project related to CCNx technology.  To get started, create a project group.  If you'd like to have a look around at the various project groups, take a look at the Project Group Directory.  Some projects are open and you are free to join, while other projects are private and require an invite from the group owner.  If you have comments or suggestions for this feature, please contact the CCNx Admin Group.
