You may have heard rumors, but it’s now official- we will be hosting DrupalCamp Dallas 2010 at OpenCamp! That’s right- a full DrupalCamp with two simultaneous Drupal tracks running all day in their own rooms, as well as Birds of Feather sessions and all the usual greatness of DrupalCamp, but with the added benefit of everything OpenCamp has to offer.

Impromptu Meetup for an Awesome Guest of Honor
Jerad Bitner (aka sirkitree around here) has generously offered to come to Houston and give us a presentation (because he's awesome). This is a great opportunity to learn from one of Drupal's best and brightest, so please make sure to be there.
Jerad's a Lullabot, so please also remember to congratulate him on their awesome redesign. :)
Also, I have set up a chipin page if anyone would like to contribute to the hotel room fund for our out-of-town guest. Much appreciated!

Let's get together and build something!
We'll spend all day building a site or working on module projects, and learning from each other.
Please RSVP, and add a comment indicating your strengths, and which part of the project you feel you can contribute to the most. Design? Content? Site building? Programming?
We'll be at Caroline Collective all day. I suspect there will also be beer. :)

Best way to submit inputs....
Okay, I have someone that wants me to build a fairly simple site for them. The only issue is we have gone from a simple "email" of information to actually having to input into an insurance database.
The site will be for an insurance agent and the main company doesn't want client data outside their control.
What the customer wants is a way for their customers to input data onto the site and have this information generate an email to them.
But what they have described to me is that this inputting of information needs to interface with a database outside the hosting service.

Good article outlining the Drupal 7 theming differences

With Katherine reporting/threatening only 50 critical core bugs remaining, this may come sooner than we know :D
Read moreAuthorize.net or other gateways for Ubercart
I have set up a few sites with authorize.net, but in each instance, the client has given me the keys/info, and I never dealt with the actual authorize.net net setup.
Can someone speak of his experience from a vendor's perspective as to what is really involved? I think you don't buy straight from auth.net but rather through a reseller-- how does one go about selecting "the right vendor?" What about costs? What other payment gateways have you used with Ubercart?
Thanks

MongoDB
Per our discussion of MongoDB last night (discussing the DrupalCon session covering the topic), it slipped my mind that there is an article about MongoDB in the upcoming Linux Journal, June 2010. I even had a copy in my bag I could have passed around. :-/
I will bring it next time though! It should be on newsstands soon too. ;)
