DrupalCamp5

Hey folks, sorry it took me a week to get this done, but here are the final financial figures on this past Drupal Camp.

Donations: total $1,500
(donations from hostmysite.com; Platypus Theory; Mansueto Ventures; Democracy In Action; Mayfirst/PeopleLink; APS Physics; Openflows Community Technology Lab)
note that we have yet to receive the payment from hostmysite.com, hopefully it is simply lost in the mail and will be here soon.

DrupalCamp5 was the most different technical conference I've ever attended. Its "unconference" style was really community-centric and was what made it really unique, IMHO. Like all the conferences I had attended (I had gone to events as large as the ones held at the Jacob Javits Center), DrupalCamp was very informative, yet I found that I took away uncharacteristically large amount of imformation and knowledge that "sticks". It was by far the most productive conference I had ever been at, for my own personal purpose, that is. I think it was due to its unique community-centric style.

As promised here are my raw notes from the presentation. You'll notice it isn't identical to what I presented, but pretty close - I do tend to improvise...

Hope to see you all at future meetups and camps - go drupal!

Also, what do people want to do tomorrow. I'm hoping afternoon we can do a code sprint or a documentation sprint.

I can't make it on Sunday. Does anybody want to take my place? Please contact me at stephen@capellic.com

Fellow Drupallers. Drupal Camp NYC 5 is finally here!

Remember, you are only registered for Drupal Camp NYC 5 if you registered BEFORE September 1st.

For those registered, here is some important information:

1. For anyone brand new to Drupal and/or planning to attend the Intro to Drupal sessions, please download the required files to your computer.

Details and download links can be found on this page - http://groups.drupal.org/node/14569

Attendees!

Follow the below instructions to make sure you are ready for this session BEFORE you come to DrupalCampNYC!

Why? Biggest reason is to make sure you have all the files that may be used during the presentation (no guarantee we'll use them all!) You may be able to get a network connection and download them there, but from experience at prior Drupal camps not everyone is successful hooking up to the wireless. To be safe rather than sorry follow the below instructions so you have the files already on your machine...
