Atlanta

We are looking for a good web development team that can handle both development and design of the site. We wish to have site built on the Drupal 6 framework and to incorporate a clean easy to navigate design with a Web 2.0 feel. Site design should incorporate plenty of room for advertising space (banners, text ads, etc). We wish to implement site in three phases. Our website will consist of four primary areas: Information, Magazine, Community and Members Only.

We are a small Web design/dev shop in need of a Drupal developer. We are totally awesome, so we consider that a perk. Seriously, we love what we do, and we hope you do too!

An hourly rate will be based on your experience and the value you bring to the table. We would love to see the following:

Subject: Drupal 6 Overview

Have you been wondering if the time is right to start on Drupal 6.x or wait?

Chris Hales from Mediacurrent (www.mediacurrent.com) will be sharing some of his experiences and takeaways from the recent Lullabot Drupal Intensive and Drupal Theming summer workshops. Chris will provide examples and explanations of new features found in Drupal 6. The presentation will include changes to Drupal core as well as modifications found in the 6.x versions of CCK and Views 2, which will make development time much more efficient. Q&A session to follow.

As some of you may already know DrupalAtlanta.com is in the process of redesigning their website. The organizers of the project hope to use the site redesign as a working laboratory to expose new members on how to build a Drupal site from the ground-floor. Look out for meeting updates about the monthly Drupal workshops being conducted!

However, first and foremost we need your input. We are in the process of defining the requirements and goals of the site and are looking for feedback on such things as:

• What type of features and functionality should be included?

This meeting will be dedicated to adhoc hands on projects. Specific emphasis will be given to forming a team to migrate and upgrade the Drupal Atlanta Web site. Lets use our Web site as a learning tool. We'll need a couple of advanced users to direct a team of relative beginners on how to do the work.

Other projects/workshops can occur in parallel.

As always:

The location and time are the same: 7-9pm, 5 Seasons restaurant in Alpharetta, GA., on Old Milton Parkway, about one mile east of GA 400 off of exit 10.

The Enterprise Systems Department at the Georgia Tech Research Institute is looking for a full-time PHP Developer experienced with Drupal for handling internal and external websites, business systems, and integrating legacy applications from several platforms.

SwampFox.ws is a business social network developed on a Drupal platform. Anchors of our community include leading organizations such as Michelin, Milliken, GE, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. We have clear plans for what we believe can become the world's leading open innovation platform, and we are looking for a Drupal Php developer to lead this effort.

We have finally gone live with our redesign of the Georgia Podcast Network! For a rundown of what's new from an end user standpoint, check out our announcement blog post.

GAPN is based on Drupal 5.7, and makes heavy use of the following modules: CCK, Views, Workflow-ng, FeedAPI, ImageCache, Usernode, Bio, Fivestar, and Voting API. That's not a full list, but the site leans on those the most.

Additionally, we built a custom theme and wrote several custom modules to get things working just the way we wanted them to. In writing these modules, we built custom Drupal integration for getID3, SWFUpload, and the JW Media Player.

Hope you like the site! I'll be happy to answer any "how did you do that?" questions if you have them.

Voice Over the Internet (VoIP) is converging with web applications. This presentation will begin with a description of VoIP technology and its realization in the Open Source Software Asterisk IP-PBX. It will show parallels between Asterisk and Drupal and describe opportunities for synergy between the two. Finally we will review and demonstrate the code for two examples of a VoIP application embedded in a Drupal site.
