Hi, all - So, a quick introduction: I'm Ruth Kneale, systems librarian for the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope, a project of the National Solar Observatory. In answer to the inevitable "What's a systems librarian" questions, let me summarize: I'm one of the geeky librarians who lives in the server rooms and keeps the web sites and databases running :-) and if you'd like to know about ATST, visit http://atst.nso.edu/ (not Drupal-driven yet, but soon!).

Looking for more support, I did a search for Drupal groups in Arizona and didn't find anything (oddly enough, this group doesn't appear in that search!) but when I started to throw cities at it, poof you appeared! I'm down in Tucson and after spending 6 months comparing CMSs I chose Drupal. Have been working in it since last summer and still have hopes of going live with my new site by the end of January (although realistically it may be February, there are still a few bugs to work out and some content to ingest). The more I use it the more I like it, but I do spend more time beating my head on the wall than I wish.

I'm up for traveling up north for a meetup if there are any planned!
