Upper Valley Meetup, 1/25
Hello! I just posted an event for this month's meetup on Jan 25: http://groups.drupal.org/node/203863
I'm thinking we'll do lightning talks or freeform discussion again, so I'd like to encourage folks to propose topics. Otherwise, you're going to hear me talk about maps again for the bazillionth time (kidding!!!).
This can be a presentation on a topic, or something you'd like to learn more about. Also, DrupalCamp Western MA is this weekend, so if any among us are planning to go, it would be great to hear how it was!
