Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story. We generally meet once a month (typically the 4th Thursday) on a variety of topics, both technical and non-technical. There is no cost to join the group or attend our monthly meetings.
We have a sister group in the Lower Mainland, the Surrey Drupal Users Group that meets on the 2nd Thursday of the month. Many people are members of both groups.
Twitter and IRC
Hey all -
Just another PSA here, to let everyone know there's now a Twitter account set up if you want to follow for meetup reminders, etc. at http://twitter.com/vandug. The group admins all have access to the password, and if one of us gets fancy, we'll set up some kind of hashtag retweeter system.

New to Drupal and looking for collaborators?
I'm nearing the end of my current project and about to start a few others. I'm usually a lone coder but I'm thinking it would be cool to meet up with some other non-elites in Vancouver, newish to Drupal and work on a project or two together. We can learn from each other and perhaps make something cool. I'm sure there are others out there like me kinda between the "I suck" and "I kick ass" threshold, not quite ready for the big leagues but wanting to get there quick. Or am I the only one?
If interested, message me or introduce yourself at Drupal Camp!

WTB Books!
I was just about to order the new Drupal 6 book from Packt and also the Drupal 5 Themes book when I thought, maybe someone in town is done with their old tattered manuals and wouldn't mind parting with them. Is there anyone in Vancouver willing to sell me their copy of those books and/or Drupal Pro Develpment? I'll wait and see, and if not, I'll happily order new copies online. And by the way, I prefer the old fashioned paper variety. :)
