DrupalCamp Session Submissions
Just over 3 weeks to go to DrupalCamp!
We'd like to get a draft programme produced this weekend, so if you're thinking of making a session submission it would be helpful if you could do so soon.

Edinburgh for 2 weeks
Im going to be staying in Edinburgh for two weeks, from 12 May until 27 May, after Drupalcamp Scotland.
If anyone has desk space I could maybe use, that would be great, in exchange for some theming help?
Otherwise, if anyone wants/needs some theming hell while I am around, just let me know.
Also any help I can provide with organising the Drupalcamp, please let me know!
Tom
p.s: If you, or someone you know, have an interest in sleep disorders like Narcolepsy, then please let them know about https://edinburgh2012.eventbrite.co.uk/ Narcolepsy UK conference on 12 May in Edinburgh.
Publicising the Scots Gaelic Drupal translation
At the time of writing, the Scots Gaelic translation of Drupal at http://localize.drupal.org/translate/languages/gd runs in at 7.96KB for Drupal 6 and 6.18KB for Drupal 7. The Spanish translations run in at 527.35KB and 594.68KB so, assuming that the Spanish translation is more or less complete, only 1-1.5% of the necessary work has been completed on the Scots Gaelic translation.
What can be done to get started on rectifying this situation?
Spreading the Word of this year's DrupalCamp
We are starting to see a healthy signup for May's DrupalCamp, and some great submissions for sessions. It's also looking like we'll have sufficient sponsorship to ensure that the event will be free to attend - so register at http://camp.drupalscotland.org before we run out of space.

Read moreServices 3.x REST server create update without storing NID on remote site
Im just at the begining of trying to understand services and rest, I have a simple php script that I can use to create resources from my remote site, this works fine as does updating resources when I have the NID to add into the script.
What I cant seem to get my head around is how I link create and updates from a remote site when the remote doesnt have or store the NID, I assumed that perhaps using CCk to store a Unique ID from the remote may be the answer but Im unsure how I would go about retrieving a NID from a REST call with a Unique CCK field.

Drupal Camp Scotland session ideas: live from Drupal Drinks Edinburgh
Greetings from Drupal Drinks Edinburgh! You join us live at the Villager on George IV Bridge where we are discussing ideas for sessions for the forthcoming Drupal Camp.
- panels/display suite/context round table discussion: heated debate (yet again!) on this topic has raised the idea that a freeform discussion session might be amusing/interesting/informative. With audience participation (heckling?) of course!
- git branching - I'll probably do another crash course in using git for fun, profit, and unholy branching models.
UK Drupal Association
I'm Steven Jones, I organise the West Midlands Drupal user group, which holds regular monthly meetups. I've found it hard to get going with organising things and to work out what other local groups there are and how to advertise the group etc.
I have the feeling that the Drupal community in the UK is fairly disorganised in a overall sense, individual groups seem to be organised, but as a whole, we are not. I would like to change this.
I propose that 'we' should create some kind of 'UK Drupal Association' that can act as a central body for a few things:
