Directions: http://www.abi-nh.com/about/directions

Agenda:
Greg Stout will be demoing a use of Drupal with views powering XML to drive a flash based front display. Looks much snazzier than it sounds... If you want to see how Drupal can be the back end to a flash based website, this will give you some great ideas

We will be discussing the Design4Drupal upcoming event at MIT, as well as postgame on DrupalCampNH.

Other items will include the usual Q&A, demos, and afterward, beer drinking someplace....

Will there be food? I plan on being there, but it'd be nice to know if I need to grab something to eat beforehand.

No food

No food, but you wouldn't be the only one who brought some fast food to eat... others do that.

We tend to go out afterward and drink/eat at one of the local bars.

Aha...

So the actual meeting isn't really three hours long?

It depends on the night. But often, we get thirsty around 8:30.

Sadly, I have a conflict tonight, but this sounds like a fantastic time!

Greg, is there any chance of seeing that demo another time/way? I'd love to get some info on incorporating Flash into Drupal sites.

Hopefully I'll be at the next meeting! Are they generally once a month?
