Last month we had a great time, meet a few people and discussed amongst other things the schedule for our meetups. We decided to make Friday's meetups in the afternoon, so in April we should meet the 11th at 14h. But February is not over yet, March is waiting for us with DrupalCon in Boston, so we're going to meet right after that, Saturday March 8th from 14h until 17h. Everyone is welcome, of course :)

Next, we have to pick a location. We suggested alternating between Bande-Passante on Fridays and an île sans fil café on Saturdays. Any suggestions? Ananya offered her place but I don't have the details. Hopefully, she'll post here. But we have a few weeks to settle on a place, so let's find a cool spot :)

Super

J'aime bien l'idée d'avoir au moins une rencontre durant les heures "ouvrables" et l'autre en dehors. Ceci devrait convenir à deux publics n'ayant pas les mêmes contraintes. Merci pour l'organisation!


On alterne entre vendredi et

On alterne entre vendredi et samedi justement pour convenir à deux publics, même si dans les deux cas c'est l'après-midi. Ou n'est-ce pas suffisant ?

Parfait

Pour ma part, j'ai l'impression que c'est parfait!

I am a Drupal freelancer trying to network with other Drupal people in montreal. I want to come to the next meetup. How does it work? Do you all just get together to help each other with problems and share expertise?


Welcome!

We meet for all kinds of reasons... Helping each other, sharing experiences, brainstorming ideas, showing recent works, discussing the going ons of Drupal, or just for meeting and having a drink with people who "talk" Drupal. Pick yours! ;)


I'd love to show up but...

... I'll only be coming back from the con on the 9th.

BTW, hellolindsay, ususally we get together and demo stuff to eachother and chat about whats hot and whats not in the Drupalsphere. This means that it is sometimes possible to get some help even it they are not come-to-get-free-consulting-sessions. The idea is for this to be fun... not just more work.


Same for me...

Same for me... I'll arrive too late on the 8th to attend the meetup.


Sounds Good - so where is the place?

I am definitely in for informal Drupal talk. So where is the meetup up this Friday? At Bande-Passante? Can someone post the address?


Ah. It's on saturday.

I misread the post, I can't make it Saturday, not Friday. Next month then.


C'est où, finalement?

I was just logging in to check the exact place and date, but there doesn't seem to be any WIFI place chosen. Est-ce que la rencontre aura toujours lieu?


Looks like things screwed up...

... I was just coming on-line to say that I'd be able to make it for a 5-7... but would only show up with other actually confirmed... then noticed that the session was intended for 14:00... and it is exactly 14:00 now (and I'm at home)... so... ummm... total screw up.

Anyway, I'm back from my parental leave and feel somewhat refreshed/rejuvinated, so I intend to play a bigger role in getting these things organised. I suspect that with a little effort we can make these popular events... ones that actually reflect the widespread use of Drupal in Montreal and throughout Quebec.
