Read moreRegional Drupal Camps
So, we have a lot of Drupal Camps going on in the Midwest this year. This is a GREAT thing! It means the local communities are getting strong enough to start hosting these camps. I know this year our camp could have been a lot larger, our venue this year was big enough to handle something MUCH larger, but as I'm sure a number of others out there are experiencing some balance of sponsors, speakers, and attendees that may or may not already be committed to another Drupal Camp.

Read morePatches for Patches?
Hi everyone... I have a question about patch etiquette and I figured I'd start by asking you guys first...
If somebody creates a patch for a module, and I'd like to add some functionality to the functionality added by that patch, what is the best approach? Should I create a patch that requires you apply the other patch before applying mine, or should I build a patch that includes all the changes and submit it to the same issue? Or something else? I'm sure there's some sort of proper way to go about this, I just don't know what it is.
Thanks!
