Sarasota Meetup
Looks like I'm going to be in Sarasota on Valentine's Day weekend - how about we schedule a breakfast meetup for Saturday, February 13th at 9am?
What was the name and location of the place we met last time (all I remember is the tasty food)?
This will be the weekend before Florida DrupalCamp - there should be lots to talk about!

Read moreFlorida DrupalCamp 2010 Registration Sprint!
Tuesday, January 12, 2010 is Florida DrupalCamp 2010 registration sprint day!
Let's make a big push today to get as many people signed up for Florida DrupalCamp (to be held February 20-21, 2010 in Altamonte Springs) as possible. This will help immensely in planning how much food and drinks we need to purchase as well as how many chairs, tents, and other stuff we need to reserve.

Drupal Miami Social on Friday night?
I'm going to be in Miami visiting the Knight News Foundation, and have my Friday evening (Dec. 11th) open. Anyone up for a meal / drink and social talking Drupal?
I'll be traveling all day tomorrow (Thursday) so will check in at the end of day. I'm staying at the EPIC Hotel, so it would be great if there was somewhere close by / short cab ride to get to.

DrupalCamp Florida 2010 Hotel?
I've been in contact with a number of people around the state regarding DrupalCamp Florida and I've had several people ask me about hotels near the event.
Perhaps someone local to the Orlando/Altamonte Springs area (whose name isn't Andrew) can step up and find a hotel near MindComet's offices and see if we can work out some sort of group rate? This would be valuable information that we can put on the web site and it might entice more people to attend and stay for both days.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
Thanks,

Potential Participating Non-Profit Organization for DrupalCamp 2010
With plans for Florida DrupalCamp 2010 well underway and our discussions about building a site for a non-profit organization on Day 2 of the camp, I figured I'd create a place to start capturing all of the good ideas as well as names of potential non-profit partners for the event.
Read moreWhat to call day 2 of DrupalCamp Florida?
At Saturday's most-excellent central Florida Drupal meetup, we had a discussion about what we should call day 2 of DrupalCamp. As you may or may not know, this year, we're adding a second day to DrupalCamp Florida where we're going to be building a full site for a local non-profit organization. We're going to pre-select an organization prior to the event and do some initial legwork, but 100% of the development will be done on day 2 of the camp.

Thanks to everyone to coming out for the October, 2009 Central Florida Meetup at MindComet's offices in Altamonte Springs.
We started off with a demonstration/discussion/exploration of the latest Drupal 7 development version. We took about an hour to explore all the new features. We spent a significant amount of time with the Dashboard module, fields in core, taxonomy as fields (wow), and ImageAPI in core (sweet).
