This video shows a pre-recorded version of the session "Essential knowledge for Drupal beginner", from DrupalCon Denver. It is a slower version of the actual presentation held at the conference, and also contains some information skipped in Denver (but doesn't have any Q+A).

The session description can be found here: http://denver2012.drupal.org/program/sessions/essential-knowledge-drupal... There will probably be a link to the live recording there.

* How the formal things around Drupal core are managed (including release cycles)
* How the formal things around contributed projects are managed
* How and where to learn more and take part of the Drupal community
* Some of the fun/crazy stuff people in the Drupal community come up with

This screencasts talks about Drupal being open source, and what that means. It discusses:

* What open source means, from some kind of legal perspective
* That open source is not necessarily without cost
* That open source does not mean 'no vendors'
* That Drupal is a collaborative effort, involving thousands of people working together
* That Drupal has no official certification system (for a reason)
