Hi all-
Since nobody else has scheduled a meetup recently I figured I'd put one on the board. For now I'll say it will be held at Zivtech Headquarters, but feel free to change that to someplace else if there's an objection.
Anyway, as usual, we'll have beer and pizza (and feel free to bring more beer). I'm thinking we should talk about DrupalCon CPH, Drupal 7 (which may be fully baked at that point, at the very least it will be in beta), and maybe start planning for Drupaldelphia 2011.

Countdown to Drupaldelphia!
Drupaldelphia is only 17 days away! We've got a lot to do still!
Here are our biggest needs:
- People to volunteer to lead a session (We only have 5 listed on the site)
- People to promote the event on other groups, websites, mailing lists, flyers in college buildings, etc (We only have 52 people registered - we're shooting for 175)
- Are we offering lunch? If so we need to book a caterer
- Are we creating a T-Shirt? If so we need a design and someone to place the order
Following that, we'll need
- Someone to assemble the sessions into a schedule

Introducing Flemington Drupal - A new Meetup group in Flemington, NJ
I just started the Flemington Drupal Meetup a couple weeks ago because I think there is a need for something a bit closer for people in this area. Princeton, Philadelphia and NYC are all 45-75 minutes out and not easily accessible by some.
I am pretty new to Drupal in contrast to the community, about 1.5'ish years but can definitely provide a good foundation for noobs to learn and get started.
Will post more info soon about our first Meetup on the 16th.
Cheers,
Elijah Lynn

Read moreMD Drupal For Good - Building a free non-profit site
During the past several Maryland Drupal meetups, I've mentioned building a simple Drupal site during an event in order to go into detail regarding building a site as well as troubleshooting issues that come up during development. Sean Powell (esdott) brought this up during this meetup and sparked interest regarding this. It then occurred to me that instead of building a simple useless site, we should take our energy and build for a worthwhile cause and learn.

Intro to Drupal Module Development
http://www.zivtech.com/services/train/intro-drupal-module-development
Our Introduction to Module Development class provides a hands-on crash course in solving specific problems by building custom modules. This training focuses on how to approach a specific problem that existing modules simply do not solve. Students follow along in individual development sandboxes as we guide them through putting Drupal's APIs to work. Attendees will leave the class with a working knowledge of Drupal's menu, form and hook systems as well as the database layer.
