Potential Topics

Firstly, big thanks to OS for offering the space!

Potential Topics:

  • Review Drupal Camp (briefly): specifically what will make it better next time around, more t-shirts (is that conversation dead in the water?), and re-cap finances.

  • There was some discussion about re-working Philippe's registration module and releasing it as a pdx group supported project. At the very least we could go over the features of the module and look at the code. Discussion could follow from there.

I'm always up for hearing about, and seeing, the kind of Drupal projects group members are working on, along with the challenges and solutions encountered on the way.

Reminder

Just wanted to remind everyone that the meeting is at the OpenSourcery office at 711 SE Ankeny St. Portland, OR 97214. I'm going to try to swing by the bus project and put a note on the door redirecting people.

I'll throw another idea out for a topic: convincing clients that it's in their interest to play the open source game... if it's not obvious, i'm in the middle of making that argument right now. and would love to hear how other people handle it.

Great topic --

Do we also want to talk about code sprint/possible OSCON involvement?

And if we're doing site showcases, I have one we could cover -- some fun uses of cck, views, and og --

Cheers,

Bill
