Start:
2007-01-25 18:00 - 20:00 Canada/Pacific Let's kick off the year of meetings! Next Thursday, January 25th.
What we'll talk about:
- Drupal 5: it's released! what are people enjoying? having trouble with?
- recipes: Dale is going to share a recipe on using CCK and date fields to create a conference schedule page. See northernvoice.ca for an example
- special guests: bpocanada.com has an outsourcing center in India but is headquartered here in Vancouver; they'll introduce themselves and talk about some of the work they've done
- Roland Schmidt and Axel Starck of Contec will talk about their use of Drupal and mobile Internet
We can also perhaps demo some of the OpenID client/server work that we're doing right now. Read up a bit on OpenID.net ahead of time and come with questions.
Location: Bryght's offices at 1 Alexander Street - Suite 400. Edge of Gastown, corner of Alexander/Water/Powell/Carral, across from the Gassy Jack statue. Buzz up and we'll let you in, take elevator to the 3rd floor then walk up to the 4th.

re: January vancouver meetup
Hi all,
Met some of you at the Seattle boot camp last summer. Coming over from the Island around that time for other meetings, so would like to join you.
We're in the process of upgrading our sites to 5.0. Like the clean interface.

Looking forward to meeting y'all
Hi Guys, I'm completely green to Drupal but am excited at getting plugged into this group. I look forward to meeting everyone on Thursday evening. Are thursdays locked in stone? Just asking since I have a child-music-lesson-delivery-and-pick-up-situation which may affect my regular attendance?
best wishes
Richard

We've been running with Thursdays, yep. Usually 3rd Thursday of the month, although we tend to shift a bit depending on other events.
Just noticed
Just noticed, the location was in the group email. My bad.
w00t!
I am coming up to the surface from my 2006 work-year and will be there!
I'm in
I'm glad that the timing works out well this week. I'll spread the word down at the office to see if there are any last minute additions.
See you all there,
Rick
New arrival
Sounds good - having just arrived here from the UK last week I was looking forward to making my first visit to the Bryght office and to meeting some other drupaliers. But it's also the kids first day at their new school (new system, new teacher, new classmates) so I'm going to have to give it a miss.
Hope to be there next time.
I'm passing on this one
I'm passing on this one too.
I really want to see bryght's new offices.
next time maybe.
Coming to play
I'm going to come down tonight as well, really digging the module dependancies in 5, and the install profiles look promising.
Sounds Great
But I won't be able to make it...
Would like to meet some of the local Drupal developers (Steve says they're all cool people) but I'm currently in Vegas helping out a client so I'll have to hook up next time.
Have fun.
