Start: 
2011-08-31 18:00 America/Chicago
Organizers: 

This will be "demo oriented" meetup in the offices of Accede right next to the capital: http://accedecpa.com/ .

We'll have a projector and can run through some of the sessions that people might have missed at the last month's camp or on other topics folks are interested in showing or discussing.

If you have a topic you'd like to see covered leave a comment below and I'll try and prepare something.

Location:

7 North Pinckney St.
Suite 235 Madison, WI 53703

Please signup if you are coming as the office isn't that large so we'll have to limit it to the first 15 who register. If more than 15 signup maybe we can find a larger venue.

Ohhhhh, maaaaan! I can't go on Wednesdays! I was hoping we'd go back to Thursdays like we used to long ago. If you have another one next month - I vote for Thursdays!

I'm definitely interested to hear about some of the core stuff you've been involved in.

I put together a few slides

I put together a few slides about contributing to core and it'd be great for a chance to give them a test drive. :)

If we have extra time, I can also talk about the exciting life and journey of hook_field_widget_form_alter()!

Posted to UW lists

I cross-posted an announcement about this on ComETS and the UW Drupal mailing list. Can we add the post to http://groups.drupal.org/university-wisconsinmadison as well? Also, silly nitpick: there should be two Ds (MadDUG). :)

Done!

Breadcrumbs?

I don't know if this topic is appropriate for the meetup, but it would be great if we could have a short discussion on breadcrumbs and how they relate to menus, access, and taxonomy. We have a very complicated information architecture at UW-Platteville, and likewise our menu structure is very complicated, requiring a separate menu for each department/access group. So it's impossible to automatically drive breadcrumbs based on menu, yet we have been charged with delivering breadcrumbs. So I'm wondering what Drupal tools are best used for gluing this all together, particularly the breadcrumb module/technique. Can we spend a few minutes on this tonight? Just throwing it out there.

Thanks!
