Tri-Valley Drupalers

Drupal Developers - Come Grow with Us!

Interested in architecture and coding, user interface/experience, and/or mentoring fantastic teams? We are seeking Senior Web Developers with Drupal experience to be responsible for development efforts on VMware’s Virtual Appliance Marketplace (VAM). You will deliver the best technology solutions in a highly scalable, multi-tier environment.

At the initial meet-up at Dagaz yesterday evening, 50% of the entire Tri-Valley Drupalers group attended. ;) Thanks for the cookies, Doug!

Here are some of the things that were discussed:

Content Construction Kit (CCK) http://drupal.org/project/cck

Views http://drupal.org/project/views

Panels http://drupal.org/project/panels

Drupal Administration Menu http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu

Update Status http://drupal.org/project/update_status

FeedAPI http://drupal.org/project/feedapi

Feed Element Mapper http://drupal.org/project/feedapi_mapper

In the summer of 2006, I started searching for podcasts to listen to during my morning jog. There really was not a whole bunch to choose from. I did however, get hooked on the Lullabot Podcast even though I had no idea what a Lullabot was. Hmm... I still don't. Anywhoo, Drupal 4.7 was about to be released and Dagaz was looking for a CMS solution to offer our clients. So thanks to Lullabot we decided to go with Drupal.

After a handful of test sites, we (Dagaz) developed our first Drupal site for the Tri-Valley church organ specialist Jarvis Music Associates.

We may have lost a little momentum... I wanted to spark it back up, and prep us for our first meeting next month :) (elsterama (hope the leg situation is better))

So, as we get ready for a real life meet-up, perhaps a bit of a roll-call here in the group forum. I was thinking:

• a little about yourself
• your drupal experince/knoweledge/dreams or desires
• plans/projects
• full-time drupler/part-time drupaler/weekend drupaler
• what you are interested in getting with this group
• any talents, skills, knowledge you think you want to share with your new best friends :)

PLEASE NOTE: I am truly sorry for the late notice, but due to a broken leg, this month's Initial Tri-Valley Drupalers Gathering is canceled.
The next meeting has been scheduled for 5/14/08. Sorry all.

Hi All!
The proposed meet-up time slot for Tri-Valley Drupalers is the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 5:30pm. The first meeting will be on 4/9 at the Dagaz offices in Danville. (more info to come)

In the post over in the bayarea group somebody mentioned they have a space available for use in Danville, just wanted to let everyone know that we can also use the office I'm at in downtown Walnut Creek (a little outside of the tri-valley.) Just wanted to lay that out there if a Walnut Creek location may work better.
