A simple question with far reaching consequences - At a DrupalCamp in a non English speaking country (e.g. Spain), what should be the primary language ?
My arguments
This is my view, and i post it to get the discussion going.
Dublin GTUG - Google Technology Users Group
Hey!
A Dublin GTUG (Google Technology Users Group) was recently formed, the first meeting was held last month, and there is one on this month, at 18:30 on Tuesday 31st August in Google's Dublin office. Full disclosure: I am one of the organisers of the Dublin GTUG.
Informal Drupal Meetup?
This is Michael Haggerty from Trellon. I am on the way to Copenhagen and stopped in Dublin until Monday the 16th.
The more I learn about the webdev community in Ireland, the more interesting I find it to be.
Anyone interested in getting together for an informal Drupal meetup? Happy to dig in on technical issues or just get together for drinks.

Drupalcon CPH
Hi all,
So who's making the trip to Copenhagen for Drupalcon?
I'll be there, and I'll be in Copenhagen and surrounds for the previous week on holidays too.
I haven't booked any accommodation for Monday to Friday just yet.
Is anybody looking to share an apartment or a large hostel room even.
This place
http://www.danhostelcopenhagen.dk
is literally across the road from the conference venue.

Acquia Marina Subtheme Help - Primary menu vertical alignment
Hi,
I'm developing a site at the moment and have hit a brick wall that has me going round in loops for weeks now.
Essentially I have a Acquia Marina subtheme that I have created. All works well except for one thing:
I have fixed width and height of the primary divs that contain the links to meet the design requirements.
My issue is that when there is a single line link it aligns to the top of the div. longer links wrap and are aligned vertically correctly (the font and line height allow them to appear vertically centre aligned).

===================
Vote for DrupalCon Copenhagen sessions for teaching & learning Drupal
Of course we all expect to learn a lot at a DrupalCon, but these sessions are specifically about training for Drupal, or about learning Drupal. These might be of particular interest to those who are trainers or developing Drupal learning materials; or provide training services and documentation for clients.

Ubercart credit card processing for Ireland
I've got several Ubercart sites using Paypal as their sole means of taking CC's. Now I'm doing one for a retailer who already has a CC/Laser machine and I'm wondering are there modules to connect Ubercart with any of the Irish credit card/laser processing companies, or does anyone have any experience with CC & Laser processing in Ireland with Ubercart I'd really appreciate a few pointers.
Thanks

Website Tender | Ireland
Advice NI invites proposals for a rights-based website, database and CMS aimed at older people and those who work with them in Northern Ireland.
Any proposal should be based on the requirements we have highlighted within our ‘Invitation to Tender’ document (attached).
Drupal Developer | New Startup
I am looking for a drupal developer with loads of experience in Dublin to finish, change and develop modules for a drupal-based web application which is also an innovative product in mobile web domain.
No offers of remote/telecommute work please.
Drupal Groups Email Spam
I'm starting to get a little annoyed by the sheer volume of email spam coming from Drupal Groups :(
I really don't mind getting told when there's a new thread, or if there's been a response to a thread I'm already actively following, but the constant stream of chatter is doing my head in at this stage.
Is it possible to trim this down? Am I blind? I've not been able to find anywhere that will let me alter notifications of this type.

Carpooling to Ballyvaughan
Hello,
been thinking about how some people are hoping to get to Ballyvaughan this Friday, Saturday or Sunday. If anyone is driving with space in their car for a passanger or two, it would be great if they posted where they are coming from, where they think they'll pass through and at what time they're planning to depart for Ballyvaughan.
slow VPS site
I have a VPS site running Virtuzzo with Blacknight. Unlike Alan who also had VPS problems with Blacknight and on a similar spec-ed machine, the server isn't grinding to a halt and the server load rarely goes above 2 or 3. The site is going live this week but the performance is very poor, and no matter what I try I can't seem to improve things much.
Drupalcamp Burren - What do you want to hear about?
Hi all,
I have one session ready to go for drupalcamp next weekend,
but I'd be happy to do another.
Is there any specific topic people would like to hear about?
And at what level, eg Beginner/ Intermediate /Advanced
Let me have your suggestions - and I'll see what I can do.
Maybe somebody else might be inspired by the suggestions, and take one [or more] on.
Later
Alan
Anyone going to DrupalCamp Ballyvaughan from Galway area?
Myself and a couple of colleagues are trying to get there, and right now it looks like the bus for us. If anyone has space in their car for 1 or more, please let us know! We will pay for gas, a pint, etc :)
Thanks,

Best module or CCK field to allow thumbnail view of big picture
Apologies for the poor title as thumbnail view isn't exactly accurate. I am looking for a module, cck field, widget or other method that would let me select a particular portion of an image to be used as a portioned size image in a view2 node content type.
I would like to select an interesting portion of an image sized about 800x600 or maybe smaller instead of trying to proportionally scale & crop a larger uploaded image (1024x768) which would be part of a node with a short description and other fields
I tried to attacha demo image but the spam filter was triggered so removed it
opensourceireland.org
Hi,
Some of you may have seen us give a presentation at ossbarcamp
over the weekend. We're in the process of building a website which will
centralise the rather fragmented opensource community in Ireland.
Basically it'll be a one stop site for all opensource events in
ireland along with bios of the groups involved and their members if
they like.
Of course, this is meant to be a site built by the community for the
community so your input is greatly appreciated if we're to pull this
off.
Currently we're taking comments on our site as well as on freenode irc
