Jerad Bitner (aka sirkitree around here) has generously offered to come to Houston and give us a presentation (because he's awesome). This is a great opportunity to learn from one of Drupal's best and brightest, so please make sure to be there.
Jerad's a Lullabot, so please also remember to congratulate him on their awesome redesign. :)
Also, I have set up a chipin page if anyone would like to contribute to the hotel room fund for our out-of-town guest. Much appreciated!

And yes, I realize that this is a lot of Drupal in a short time frame, but I really can't think of a better way to spend my time than Drupaling.
Where:
Stag's Head Pub
2128 Portsmouth St
Houston, TX 77098
UPDATE: We're going with Stag's Head Pub at 2pm. We'll have the private room, and I'll get a couple pitchers. Yay beer and food! I am not sure if they have a projector, so if anyone has one they can bring, that would be awesome. Got one!
Comments
Wow!
I'm honored at the introduction! I'd love to do a talk on my recent favorite, Features module and how to use it for development of your sites. But if there is overwhelmingly another topic you guys would want me to talk about, I can certainly do that too! I look forward to meeting you all!
Memorial Day weekend?
Is the date correct? May 29th? If so, I can't make it... unless you want to move the venue to the Guadalupe river: We could all put our butts in tubes, drink frosty adult beverages, float down the the Guadalupe River and talk Drupal!
That's a brilliant idea, and
That's a brilliant idea, and I think we should definitely do that sometime, but this time the meeting is indeed Memorial Day weekend and in Houston. While not ideal, I still hope most are available and will attend. It was purely a scheduling issue.
I'll be at the 29th
I'll be at the 29th meetup.
But I think a Guadalupe road trip would be sweet too, sometime. And my parents live in Kerrville, so they'd love an excuse for me to bring my wife and daughters out there :)
I grew up on excursions to the Guadalupe and Frio rivers. I love the cool fresh water, crystal clear, with rocky bottoms...
Features
I think features and feature servers is a great discussion topic.
Darn
Wish I could make it.
I'm A Newb!!
I'll be there to learn as much as I can! Blame katherined!
