Outro and Methods for community engagement

The software included in the workshops are organized slightly differently than the Software Listing. Rather than organizing the workshops by the thing that each software does, the workshops are organized by the technical area in which each software is used. This allows the workshop attendees to have a more common interest in the software being discussed.
