Node access permissions lightning talk?
I could do a lightning talk about node access permissions, if anyone is interested. I could cover the Node Access module, Workflow Access, custom node access modules, and/or how to resolve conflicts between them. In the context of a real site with rather complex requirements for node access permissions.
I'd like to know if anyone is interested, and will prepare something if there is interest.

looking for developer
I'll be attending the August meeting (my first) and hope to speak to people about a couple of projects for the UW Information School. Interested people should know it's a temporary, hourly position. We don't know what the rate will be right now, but the UW pays competitively for this type of work. We are working on migrating our main site and want to develop a couple of stand-alone sites branded with our org identity.
Stickers
Anyone have any cool Druplicon stickers? I need some new bling for my new laptop. Prefer straight Drupal stuff, nothing with company names/logos.
Sticker Exchange!
I have several stickers and have been debating on "bling" or "no bling" for my netbook... I would love to get an Ubuntu sticker and ... anyone have other stickers they just want to get rid of?

I used to have some Ubuntu
I used to have some Ubuntu stickers lying around, also a GNU Gnu - let me see if I can find them in-tact. I may have given them to my daughter.
I'll look to see what i have.
I'll look to see what i have. Definitely have GeekForGood.net stickers.

Jenifer, It would be great to
Jenifer, It would be great to find out a little bit more on the drupal permissions table or most popular modules for node-access. Is it possible to get recommendations on ajax modules too, and the best way to get just node content or use ajax only templates for delivering ajax calls? I'd be SUPER interested in finding out what people do there. Thanks!
OK...
I can do the Node Access lightning talk (I'll take one vote as an endorsement :) )...
I don't know about modules to use in AJAX for delievering content (I would probably just write a module myself). That would probably depend on what you're trying to do. But we allow "lightning questions" during Lightning Talk time, so hopefully you can ask your question to the group then.

Co-Working at Mokas actually...
We are actually planning to have "co-working" time at Moka's Coffee, which is about 1 block east of the Amazon offices, on Harrison Street. I'll put up a sign when I get there.

Case Study
I'd like to do a case study about a large site we recently built that has a lot of cool features and integrations that I think people will be interested in.
hey folks -- i just moved
hey folks -- i just moved back to town from Brooklyn and am excited to connect with the Seattle DUG. unfortunately i had to cancel my signup for tonight due to a last-minute family obligation, but i look forward to the next meeting (and it sounds like an upcoming Mini Camp and Summit!).
and speaking of stickers, i have a few from the NYC group if anyone wants them :)
cheers,

Media gallery demo
The Drupal Gardens team just spent the last month creating a media gallery module for Drupal 7 - I can demo it if there's interest. It's not on drupal.org yet but will be very soon.
OMG yes
OMG yes
media gallery module
I'd be very interested in seeing this, especially if it works in Drupal 6.
