Edmonton

In just two weeks, Drupal designers and developers from Alberta, BC, PEI & Montana will gather at the University of Lethbridge for Drupal Camp Alberta 2008.

In the past week - we secured our speakers & sponsors, opened registration and are expecting approx 100 attendees - many of who are holding out on registration right now :-)

DCA08 is unlike any corporate conference you've ever attended - and for good reason. Focusing on "Drupal" - an open source content management system and application framework, DCA08 is a low-cost, highly collaborative "unconference" held in at the University of Lethbridge, in Southern Alberta, Canada.

Gone are the days of sponsored vendor presentations and for-profit registration fees. Our peer taught, volunteer-run sessions will by heavy with "doers", and light on the "talkers".

Join us July 3 & 4 from 8am - 5pm both days (Networking event on July 3rd)

After a short discussion with the powers that be at the University of Lethbridge, I have full approval to host Drupal Camp Alberta 2008 in June or early July.

Our facilities are top notch http://www.uleth.ca/conference/ (open WIFI, theatres, breakout rooms, entertainment and fitness facilities, AND campus housing summer rentals) - so we are going to take the bull by the horns and spread the word.

I know the organizers for DCV08 put it together at the speed of light, we are going to follow suit.

Need a person to upgrade our ecommerce site to the new Drupal version.

This will also include implementing Canada Post, UPS and a credit card system.

Please send us your resume/cover letter @ danna@dannabananas.com.

As we cross over into Drupal 6 I would like to start thinking about what would really push Drupal 6 or possible Drupal 7 to the next level, and seeing as a select few of us are located here in Edmonton I think it would be great if we could work together and create a very successful addition to Drupal, as well connect to the local development community.

Some of the topics which have caught my interest for Drupal 6/7 are the following:

1. Form Builder

Does anyone in edmonton here use drupal? anyone want to learn?

...not even sure how to post a message. Should I use Event (which I used for this post)? or Story?

I recently discovered the Drupal world and am actively seeking info on building (rebuilding, actually) an existing static html site. Have done the following so far:

• Ordered a Drupal book from Chapters which has yet to arrive
• Cruizing the interweb for info
• Installed Drupal on my home PC

Cheers!
