Vancouver
Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story. We generally meet once a month (typically the 4th Thursday) on a variety of topics, both technical and non-technical. There is no cost to join the group or attend our monthly meetings.
We have a sister group in the Lower Mainland, the Surrey Drupal Users Group that meets on the 2nd Thursday of the month. Many people are members of both groups.
Vancouver Drupal Users Group: Single Sign-on and Services
Brandon Shi is a Drupal developer at ImageX Media and a free lance web developer.He's been working with Drupal since 4.x. His daily responsibilities includes custom module development and JS front end/AJAX development. His favourite approach to development is rapid prototyping and basing the wireframe on the end result.
Twitter and IRC
Hey all -
Just another PSA here, to let everyone know there's now a Twitter account set up if you want to follow for meetup reminders, etc. at http://twitter.com/vandug. The group admins all have access to the password, and if one of us gets fancy, we'll set up some kind of hashtag retweeter system.
Surrey Drupal Meetup: Feb. 9th: Learn about MindCheck.ca
Andrew Mellenger of Grey Vancouver will be sharing about their newly launched website, MindCheck.ca. Be sure to come and join the group!
We meet at the ABC Restaurant at 15373 Fraser Hwy, Surrey, BC. See our meetup page, http://www.meetup.com/surrey-drupal for more info and please RSVP.
Drupal Q&A: Bring your questions on anything related to Drupal from how to do something technical in PHP to what modules are needed to implement a feature you need.
Cost: While there is no cost for this event, it would be great if you can come prepared to order something (some of us order dinner, some just drinks) along with a 15% gratuity as we really want to keep up a good relationship with ABC as they've been great in allowing us to book their conference room.
Vancouver Drupal Users Group: Drupal and Alfresco: The Ultimate Enterprise Solution
Drupal is a fantastic web development framework that allows you to build pretty much any kind of website you can think of. It has a highly flexible theming system and a simple and very well supported modular extension system. However, there are some things that Drupal isn't really that good at. Two things in particular are large Document Repositories and dealing with Hierarchical Data Stores. Enter Alfresco. Alfresco is the most popular open source Document Repository and overall ECM on the market today. Alfresco's strengths are Drupal's weaknesses and for most part ditto the other way.

Like skiing and drupal? Gimme a shout!
I'm a one man show running www.Doglotion.com, a popular grassroots freeskiing web mag based out of Whistler/Squamish. The site is bursting with content this season but my talented Drupal ninja is too busy with a full time day job to tackle a few critical fixes/improvements i'm hoping to make to the site.
Looking for someone to help with a specific list of deliverables I can provide, can pay in cash and gear. If it works well for both of us, could be plenty more work this coming summer. Hoping to hit this first batch of tasks this month.

Drupal Developer | zennlabs
Client requires a custom module that will perform a number of automated functions, based on an uploaded csv that will be stored in the database. The automated functions will be performed on an external website and will include bulk actions such as registration, login, and scraping of specific data. Ideally we are looking to have the code written in PHP/MySQL and cURL but are open to alternatives.
We are looking for a North American developer. No offshore developers.
