There is now a thriving Drupal community in Bristol.
Freelancers and developers from the many Drupal shops are regularly meeting up and sharing Drupal knowledge and experiences.
We're now meeting once a month, on the third Wednesday of the month.

If you haven't come along to one of the meetups yet, or haven't come along in a while please do - the more the merrier.

The first Bristol and the West Drupal User Group meetup
The first of hopefully many regular meetups for Drupal users in and around Bristol.
SiftGroups will be hosting with plans to kick off around 6pm and run until around 9pm, carrying on in the pub if necessary. We'll sort out some food options and beer once we know numbers.
For the first session we'll keep it fairly loose, intros and stuff and try to get idea of what we can get out of regular meetups. Knowledge sharing, regular presentations/speakers, plans for DrupalCon London etc.

FOSDEM / Drupal Developer Days Brussels
Is anything thinking of going to either of these events? (They're on at the same time - you can pick and choose between the two). I went to FOSDEM last year, and it was a really good event. There's also the bonus of a trip to Brussels and Belgian beer.
Anyway, I was planning to go, and wondering if anyone else from the area was interested so we could get a group together.

Summary:
A lovely project which is currently 90% complete and based on Drupal. We have been working on it for two years and is basically a website that allows people to contribute to causes around the world. I'm looking for someone who is really passionate and looking for a project that might lead to a full time career working with other developers and designers that are passionate and top of their game in exciting and challenging times.

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!
