Meetups

After a two-year absence, Startup Weekend is returning to NYC! SWNY
brings together entrepreneurs—designers, developers, product managers,
and more—for an intense weekend of collaboration that results in a
product being launched in 54 hours. It'll be held next weekend (nov
20-22) at Sun Microsystems. Awesome work will be done, David Kidder
(Clickable) will be speaking, Sun and Sun Startup Essentials will be
supporting, press will be there, and the event will be a part of
Global Entrepreneurship Week. Go to http://nyc.startupweekend.org/tickets/ to sign up.

Please come with questions, and we will do what we can to assist. I can do a show and tell about the project I have been working on discussing the theming issues and trials.

As usual the meetup is held at the Panera off Route 17 North.
Hope to see everyone soon!

At the November 11th Drupal NYC meetup we will have a Drupal installfest, so bring your laptop and learn how to get a working Drupal install. There are also still a couple presentation slots open, so post your ideas.

Held at the Institute for Advanced Study.

Address:
Bloomberg Hall
1 Einstein Drive
Princeton, NJ 08540
(we are marked on Google maps)

IAS is a short distance from Mercer Street. See here - http://www.ias.edu/about/directions - for directions and a campus map. For those who are familiar with Princeton University, we are basically on the other side of the golf course. It is a little over a mile from the train station, so walkable. For those coming by car, park in Lot A. There should be plenty of parking in the evening.

The October 14th Drupal NYC meetup is a day before the end of the Drupal 7 code slush, so we obviously are going to have a small code sprint. But this doesn't mean we can't have a wonderful design talk about beginner Drupal theming and grid patterns! There are still some open discussion slots available, so please submit your ideas.

Join us on September 16th for a cool-down of what was talked about in DrupalCon Paris and a discussion of what has to happen during Drupal 7's code freeze.

Hi everyone. I think it would be a good idea for us to have a documentation sprint in NYC. How many others would be interested in participating and what do you think is the ideal location/date and time? Oleg (litwol) has said if not somewhere else, we could meet at our usual monthly meet-up location at Mansueto Ventures. add1sun from the Drupal doc team has said she will help flesh out a task list and make postings so that others from the doc team will be online to help answer questions etc..

theresaanna and I were recently discussing the idea that it would be cool to have some kind of Drupal coworking day. The specifics and format are certainly up for discussion, but the basic idea is that it would be somewhat akin to the recent Drupal NYC Hackathon but take place during the workday.

What is DrupalCamp?

DrupalCamp Hudson Valley will be a 1 day "no-holds-barred discussion, workshop/code-a-thon involving the Free Software content management system Drupal." Here you can learn about what drupal is, what it can do, and how to setup your own drupal website for yourself or your group. If you've already been using drupal it is a great opportunity to get answers to your questions from drupal experts and find out about new modules and the state-of-the art of drupal. There will be breakout rooms as well for those looking to discuss specific topics and collaborate on projects.
