United Kingdom
Welcome - this group organises events, enables UK developers to keep in touch, and generally encourages Drupal connections from Land’s End to John O’Groats. For other UK related Drupal services, see also www.drupal.org.uk
British English translations
I reckon Ubercart needs a British English translation, if only so we stop using string overrides on every single UC site we build for UK clients to stop them talking about 'checks'.
However, I know almost nothing about translation, either of core or contrib, and I have no idea where to start.
Do I need to register on the localization server and create a translation project node on Drupal?
And anyway, will Drupal understand a language code of the form 'en-GB'?

DrupalCon London 2011 Proposal IRC Q&A
If you're interested in a London DrupalCon please join us on IRC #drupalcon for a two hour Q&A session starting 9 p.m. (GMT) on Friday 9th October.
Hats of to the Copenhagen team who did a similar Q&A session this week which you can read here:
http://drupalcon.dk/planning/node/115
We'll also post the log of our session here as a comment.
You can read the DrupalCon London proposal here:
Drupal Developer | Spring Technology
I have a number of clients in London and South East who are interested in sourcing Developers and Project Managers with demonstratable Drupal experience for projects now and over the next quarter.
I would be keen to introduce myself to you if you are in considering new contract assignments or in a contract and want to be on my radar for future contact.
I've been recruiting for over 12 years - my approach is consultative rather than transaction sales and looking to build my network.
Feel free to email me on rob_saunders@spring.com or call on 0121 252 3430
Cambridge DrupalCon 2012
I'd like to propose Cambridge, UK, for a DrupalCon.
It's a university town with over a thousand years of geek credibility, has great transport links, and is big enough to accommodate a DrupalCon, but small enough to make it feel like Drupal Town once we're all there - I really liked that aspect of Szged. Also it's an interesting place that overseas Drupal people will want to visit, and close enough to London to easily make day trips to the capital.
I think the UK Drupal community can put together something for 2011, but I think we'll do a much better job if we aim for 2012 instead.
Leading Music Video Commissioning site needs Drupal 6 coder for retheme and new features. | Radar Music Videos
Experienced Drupal 6 designer needed to implement new features and retheme the RadarMusicVideos.com site. We're the world's leading music video commissioning website, members range from Mercury Records, EMI and Mute Records to numerous independent, unsigned artists and music video directors worldwide. We have an active membership of over 2,000, with a strong presence on various social media and video sharing sites and have generated well over 3 million views for videos we promote.
City selection for DrupalCon 2010 still wide open
Please note that the list of cities from http://groups.drupal.org/node/26241 (as per the BoF in Paris) is just a list of possible suggestions. Please see the draft document that has been proposed for city selection guidelines: http://groups.drupal.org/node/27246
The goal is to publish that document at the end of this week (after incorporating feedback from the community) and to start receiving city proposals immediately after that. Since we need to have recommendations to give to the Drupal Association by October 15 the proposal phase will have to be short. The proposal phase will probably end October 1. After that we will have the proposals reviewed by the events agency to gather their feedback in time for the October 15 deadline.
If you want DrupalCon in your city/country in 2010 please review the document and add your feedback!

Need Help with additional sessions
Hi!
I've made myself a little program which I run trough drupal with an internal login.
The problem is that the session isn't kept. I'm able to log in but as soon as I navigate to another page I get logged out!
My thoughts is that drupals sessions interfere with my sessions...?
Anyone had any similar problems?
Really need help with this!
Thanks!

New Drupal Book : Drupal 6 Site Blueprints
<
blockquote>Bad news is always good news for the press. And so Vaughan Pyre has decided to take advantage of this and create a web site that will aggregate bad news and weird happenings from all over the world. The content of the site will be entirely derived from RSS feeds from several sources; each feed being automatically fetched and its items displayed as individual articles on the web site. Vaughan's intention is to create a lot of self-updating web sites which he intends to populate with Google ads for site users to click and click so that he can make a lot of money.
