Watering hole
Its been getting a bit noisy at Bar Broadway of late. The live entertainment and UFC vids have become a bit intrusive :) I'll make the suggestion that this month we head 50m down Broadway to the Clare Hotel. It is a whole lot more conducive to geek speak - quieter, comfy lounges and a bit more hip. It seems to be a hang for UTS students. They do host music nights there from time to time but it has looked pretty chilled on a Thursday eve when I've passed by previously.

Form follows function would be good. I'm also interested in how to successfully get print designers to transition to modern web design practices.
Quick drupal
Hi people. Thanks for a tops evening.
Quick Drupal on OS X--I'm running Lion. To get
drush qd drupal
running on my Mac I needed php-cgi. Here is a tutorialhttp://wayneeaker.com/blog/2012/04/05/setting-php-cgi-mac-os-x
I've used his linked binary as 5.3 had gone away and I am
whale:tmp rossetti$ php --version
PHP 5.3.8 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Nov 15 2011 15:33:15)
http://wayneeaker.com/sites/default/files/PHP538.dmg
Copy PHP5 somewhere
sudo cp -Rp /Volumes/PHP5\ Package/PHP5/ /usr/local/php5-aprelium
Soft link php-cgi into bin
sudo ln -s /usr/local/php5-aprelium/bin/php-cgi /usr/bin/php-cgi
Drush needs Console_Table (Drush 5) and httpserver (Drush qd) so let Drush add its libraries.
sudo chown ``whoami`` /usr/local/drush/lib/
Test (note: I had directory name problems--so chdir somewhere sensible first)
cd /tmp && drush --debug -y qd drupal-qd
Remember you can restart the server (after killing it)
cd /tmp/drupal-qd/drupal && drush rs
And then what I really wanted to do--quick drupal commerce kickstart
(First up the memory--the default 128MB won't cut it)
vi /etc/php.ini
memory_limit = 512M
drush --debug -y qd --core=commerce_kickstart --profile=commerce_kickstart --cache --site-name="Quick Commerce" drupal-qd-commerce commerce_kickstart-7.x-2.0-rc1
Perfect.
