sorry to mix SeaDUG and politics, but the meeting is the same time as the Iraq War 5th anniversary protests. i finally got to my first SeaDUG meeting last time, and i'd hate to miss this one... just throwing it out there to see if that's a conflict for other group members. no idea how difficult it is to re/schedule the meetings... (thanks, robeano!)

Thanks for the heads up. I think we'll stick with our date/time, but I understand if folks want to go protest and skip the meeting.

Hi Mahalie. It will be great to meet up with you in our town too! Yes, you have the time right. I usually put it in the body of the event, since the date/time display is pretty crappy.

Barnraising Attack

I propose a little get together prior to the DUG mtg this month. Maybe meet up at a cafe near the Start Pad space at 4 or so and bang out some of the issues that remain.

If people are interested we can make sure to get svn set up for everyone and make sure people have the permissions they need on Seadug.org so we can get down to it right away.

We are really close to being done.

If you are interested in getting together to work on this please comment below and also if you know of any good spot to convene please mention that as well- I don't really know of anywhere around 1st and Columbia...

thanks,

Cowork before Mar 19 meeting

Jared,

I scheduled a cowork meeting before the regular meeting, 3-6pm at StartPad. Robin and Zach confirmed. I posted information on the cowork wiki and will post a calendar event after the 13th. (I didn't want to post 2 pending cowork events to avoid confusion.) Perhaps we can use the StartPad cowork space for your project. Once we get a head count, I will confirm with Zach. We can find a street venue for backup.

Could meet earlier...

I'm going to be downtown for a lunch meeting that day, and rather than going back home and then coming back downtown, plan to stick around. So I'll be available around 1 or 1:30. Probably will find a coffee shop and work; open to meeting with others in that time frame, anywhere between 7th & Virginia and the DUG meeting locale.

Here are few coffee cafes with wifi near StartPad that may be suitable for cowork (I don't have first hand experience):

Online Coffee Company is three blocks north:

heyrocker - Wed, 2008-03-12 23:36

I wouldn't mind getting together early to help out, but I am next to useless on theming-related issues.

Me too. I'll add it to the agenda. Anyone who attended Drupalcon is welcome to give an overview of their favorite talk or BOF or info about the code sprint.

Plus, I have ideas of what our DrupalCamp should focus on based on my experience at drupalcon...SimpleTest anyone?

Robin
