Join us for our next meet-up graciously hosted by East Library in Colorado Springs. Note that this is a return to our regularly scheduled time: we will be meeting the first Thursday as we did before.. We'll start socializing at 6:30, and the actual chatter will begin at 7:00. Unfortunately, our host locks up at 9, so we'll have to be out by then.
Comment with what you would like to see on the agenda, and this event description will be updated accordingly. We'll be talking about the Pikes Peak Library District's latest Drupal magic and questions to pose to those attending DrupalCon, among other things. If you want to talk about something, we'll definitely talk about it.
Regular DBUG attendees are always very welcome!

5-10 Minutes Per Person
One idea I had for the February meetup was having each person share "something Drupal" for 5-10 minutes (as long as you don't mind doing it). My initial thought was that we could each cover our favorite module, theme, section of documentation, or Drupal-related website. Maybe that way we could learn some more new tips and tricks from each other.

Great Idea
Hi Mark,
Great idea! Even though I don't know much, I'll be happy to share something (tbd).

Custom Breadcrumbs
I'm also actually trying to implement custom breadcrumbs. If anyone has any experience working with that module (or any other breadcrumb module or just advice in general), I'd be very interested!
2 Possible Items
If there is interest, I could share:
An open invitation to non-technical Drupal users that I have on our blog http://www.monarchdigital.com/blog/rick-nashleanas/showcase-your-web-site so I can get more users involved.
A list of my personal "must-have" modules for very simple web sites.
A sample multi-lingual site.

Data Import Discussion
I'm researching (today and this weekend) the best ways of importing existing site data into a new Drupal site (both from a MySQL database and an MSSQL database). Virginia says she's interested in the same topic. It might be useful for us to take at least part of the session to share what we've learned so far.
Maybe we'll get lucky and someone in the group will actually have experience doing this. If you do, and you could attend, we would be very grateful for your participation.
