Sydney May Meetup

Another reminder for the sydney meetup (in event form for people watching ical and for signups). For future reference you can find the rest of the meetups for this year listed at http://groups.drupal.org/node/46530

This month we have a great presentation coupled with lots of great site demos. Please post below if you'd like to add your demo to the mix.

Sign Up!

When: Thursday, May 20th
Time: 6:30pm - 9pm (Show up around 6:30pm for firm 7pm start!!)
Venue: ABC Centre 700 Harris Street, Ultimo ( Map | Directions )

Venue Details

The ABC Centre has some security issues, so it is important that people arrive early and sign in at the security desk so that we can take everyone into the building at once. Everyone just waits and chats in the lobby, so just look around for us if you're new. If you have problems you can call either of us. Many thanks go to the ABC for providing this venue.

Parking is possible at parking meters around Thomas street and Mary-Anne street. But they take a 2 hour max i think. There are carparks behind the abc $15 (enter from Thomas street, but on the chinatown side). Also, you can get all-evening parking at the Citigate (I think that's the name) parking station for (updated) $10 (starting after 5pm, I think, and stays open until well after midight). It's at the end of the Thomas street dead end (Eastern/Chinatown side), which is very close to the ABC's back entrance.

Agenda:

• Greetings and Welcome new people + Announcements
• Presentation: Drush - why everyone keeps talking about by: Erle
  This presentation will demonstrate the Drush commandline tool and explain how to integrate it with your workflow.
• Site Demo: ABC's Pool by: John Jacobs & James Gollan
  John will demonstrate the exciting media site launched by the ABC called "Pool" and is powered by Drupal. He'll focus on the highs and lows of building the site on Drupal from a business perspective and James will include some technical insight into the modules that were developed.
• Community Discussion by: Ryan Cross & Aimee Maree
  Time permitting, we will discuss things like:
  DrupalCon San Francisco, DrupalCon Copenhagen, Upcoming DrupalCamps/Social Events, What's new in Drupal 7, and More! (or whatever you want)
• Continued at the pub with + Drinks/food
