I just got word from Emma Jane that she's coming to Ottawa on Tuesday, Nov 29th, and is looking to meet with local Drupal folks to talk Drupal theming and more. Emma Jane's written Front End Drupal and her latest Drupal: A User's Guide. I had a great time with Emma Jane at DrupalCon London & know that she brings a wealth of knowledge to any conversation.

Please sign up and we'll choose a location closer to the date. Emma Jane has a number of eBooks which are also available from her site.

Need to set the location

There's a bunch of interest in meeting with Emma Jane which is terrific. We just need to set a location. I think there will be 10-15 of us there. I do think I'd like to try to have it in Westboro, but may not be able to find something that meets our needs there.

If you haven't met Emma Jane yet, it's definitely worth coming out.

Also, worth signing up for http://a11yyow.ca if you're interested in accessibility & in a government town who isn't?

do you have an approximate

do you have an approximate time? Are we looking at lunch, afternoon, evening? I've got a couple of things early morning, but if you need anything done or anyone driven around that day, let me know.

It was listed as an event at 18:00 - 21:00

But it's really not very clear in G.D.O. Totally hidden away.

Thanks for the offer. I don't know of anything, but hard to say. I do want to try to encourage others in Ottawa to try to attend, but have limited time to take it on at the moment.

If Westboro doesn't work out, Artengine's Lab should be free, with projector and wifi. Capacity 15-20.

Let's do it at Artengine. Can you provide instructions to get there here so that we can easily direct Emma Jane and other folks there?

The meeting location has been confirmed.

Enter Arts Court from the front entrance, up the front stairs. Pass through the first two sets of doors to enter the foyer and walk straight to where the front hallway ends at the Ottawa Art Gallery. Turn LEFT and walk through two sets of doors. The Artengine Lab is on your RIGHT just after you pass through that 2nd set of doors.

Wheelchair access is possible via the door to the left of the front entrance. Ring the intercom bell at that door and an attendant from the front desk will come down and open the door for you.

PUBLIC TRANSIT: Mackenzie King Bridge or Rideau St. stations at the Rideau Shopping Centre.

DATE and TIME: Tuesday November 29th, 2011 at 6 p.m.

And +1 for pizza from me to whoever would like to organize that.
