Hey Everyone,
I wanted to try to give everyone as much notice as possible so we can get all the Auckland drupalistas together, as the last one was organized with pretty short notice...
The details are still being worked out and the dates are still subject to change, but right now we are aiming for:
Sept. 8 - 7:30 PM
Vector
103 Carton Gore Rd, Newmarket
Google Map
Ideas for the meetup so far are a presentation on performance, geocms functionality, and from the tone of our previous meetups it sounds like people would be interested in collectively implementing a site to see what approaches everyone comes up to achieve different functionality so we can learn as a group.
Again, everything is completely open to suggestions...
Big thanks to cas8 for arranging the meeting space!
On a side note, I have also registered a Auckland Drupal meetup group at: http://www.meetup.com/drupalnz/ so please feel free to join that as well to receive regular meetup updates...

Thanks for the invite and organizing...
Looking forward to it. I like the suggestions for meetup format / content. R.

I thought it would be a good idea to collectively work to implement the spec at the bottom of:
http://www.cmsshowdown.com/competition
I don't expect anyone to put a lot of time into this, but just roughly for each functionality requirement, what you think would be the best approach, module, etc to implement things?
I think it would be good from both a developer and designer side to see the pros/cons of different approaches people come up with.
I know time will be an issue with this, which is why I wanted to give everyone a heads up to check out the spec, get some ideas together, etc. so we can make the meetup as effective as possible.
Again, I am open for feedback, suggestions, etc.
