Bar Camp Dallas III is happening in just a few short weeks. Bar Camps are notorious for the high percentage of attendees who use Drupal, so everybody on the list should plan to be there.

What's a Bar Camp? It's an "unconference" where the organizers provide a venue with meeting rooms, whiteboards, overhead projectors and a big, blank schedule wall. Attendees show up in the morning and work out a schedule. The topics tend to center around Web 2.0, but the exact agenda depends on who shows up that morning. You can find out more at:

We are showcasing Drupal 5 with live community discussions all day. More information at http://drupal.hu/node/1502

To my dear New York City, Drupalistas and soon to be Druaplistas,

We are two weeks away from DrupalCamp NYC 2, 20 & 21 Jan. A few of us have been thinking what if we concentrated our efforts on a single project instead of working solely on individual projects? I'm not talking about a classroom setting, but a project (ie install profile, module stuff and theme) to educate each other?

Well here is your opportunity to change the future of one lucky group. Big or small, non-profit or community organization... If you know of a project that can use the assistance of a Drupal site, we need you to nominate them. The lucky organization will also get one year of CivicSpace on Demand (hosted and managed install of Drupal 4.7 and CiviCRM + EMAIL)!

The Québec Free Software Week (called "SQIL", for Semaine québécoise de l'informatique libre) is actually 9 days of activities promoting free software. Everyone is invited to organize an activity, be it a meeting, demo, installfest or software launch.

The Drupal Atlanta Group has almost doubled over the last month! I expect this next meeting will be packed, so get there early.

For directions, see the map here: 5 Seasons North on Old Milton rd in Alpharetta.

Agenda:
1) Pre-Networking--7-7:30pm
2) Discuss the utilization of Drupal Atlanta Web site
3) Get some Drupal tutorials started immediately

It's been approved for the LA Drupal Group to use the A205 computer Lab from 6-9pm on Tuesdays for the Month of May @
Roosevelt High School which is located at:
456 Mathews St. 90063

Host and school contact:
Kenneth Wyrick, is an Alumni of RHS Class of W'70 that is a member of the RHS IT Committee which will also be invited to these weekly session
Yes I will be there today soooo, come on down.

Greeting East Bay Drupalers,

Last month we went with an extended Q&A period since there were so many brand new folk. I would love to have a bit more presentation time this month, so let me know if you have a great idea for a presentation.

Food - Dan can't make it this month, but if someone volunteers to bring pizza & drinks, Civic Actions will reimbursement them.
