Topic for the May Meetup presentation
May meetup (let's hope it stops raining this year)
A meetup for May - let's explore a slightly more structured format if we can.
I was thinking a 15-30 minute presentation, followed by dividing into groups - perhaps a "How do I" group to get some guided walkthroughs on Drupal related tasks, and a "Let's build a" group, to work on a lightning project, which could ideally be contributed. Bring a laptop if you have one, we can all join in :-)
I'm not sure what the presentation will be on yet, so I'll add a poll after this, with the current ideas in. The most popular one gets to speak ;-)

bristol skill swap ideas
Following on from this comment, I'd like to get some comments both from people requesting a talk (or whatever) or people committing to do one on a given topic.
We can worry about where and when later. It would be in addition to the regular informal meetups in the pub.
I've posted a few notes like this before and not had a particularly good response, but more and more the Bristol Drupallers I speak to are asking when 'something useful', so fingers crossed for this time!

It's that time again
First Wednesday of the month => Bristol Drupal meet up.
I know some of you won't know until the last minute but please could you either signup to the event here or drop me a line if you will be coming. There was talk of relocating to a venue with a large space available, but I don't think we should bother unless we're sure we'll get the turn out of the last week.
Maybe we can make a better job of optimally re-arranging the tables this time? We are techies after all!
