Welome to the Mid-Atlantic, USA Drupal group! Our goal is to bring together Drupallers who live and/or work in the areas between DC and NYC, including (but not limited to) Baltimore, Wilmington, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and surrounding communities. Members of this group should be people who would consider coming together in person with other drupallers in this region-- for fun, work, camps, etc.
October 25: Open Source Frameworks Presentation
Join us on October 25th for an introduction to Open Source web application frameworks. A framework is a reusable software design which improves the development process by letting a programmer focus on the business-specific tasks of a project rather than repetitive, common tasks like database access, templating, and session management. We'll learn more about web application frameworks in general and explore a number of today's most popular ones.

PHP/Drupal Meetup June 19
We're back at Gullifty's next week for another summer outdoor PHP/Drupal meetup. Last time was another nice mix of folks -- with some heroically driving from New Jersey; once again, nobody taking advantage of the nearby transit stop :)
Anyway, the menu once again is all things Drupal, PHP, Open Source, and whatever else is on your mind.
We'll also be discussing and planning our first educational/presentation style event in the fall. I already have one victim volunteer willing to present. We'll be looking for more, and also discussing a location, timeframe, and ways to dragging inviting more people.
Please RSVP at http://php.meetup.com/353/ to let us know to look for you!
Read morePhiladelphia Area Drupal/PHP Meetup Mashup
Well, the April PHP meetup drew a nice crowd of 8 people. We were seated at 2 tables of 4 each, and our table basically talked Drupal all night! So it's clear there's some overlap and I'd like to play that up. I'd also like to try to correct the problem of being stuck in one position all night, not being able to mix up conversation. So, I'd like to try to get the PHP Meetup crowd and the Drupal Group crowd together for an evening.
When: Tuesday, May 22, 2007 at 7:00 PM

PHP Meetup Great American Pub Wayne
Hi all,
Sorry for the late notice but wanted to say the PHP Meetup group is getting together tomorrow, April 17th, 7pm at the Great American Pub in Wayne, which is steps from the Wayne R5 SEPTA stop, for city folk.
More info: http://php.meetup.com/353/
There's been some Drupal interest there in the past, and it's always good to learn from others doing similar things. Join the group and RSVP if you can make it!
Thanks,
Nate

Everybody ready to get together next week? Quixotic life started a wiki for an agenda and such...so check that out. --- lets try to get some activity on the wiki - the more activity the more we can clarify what we want to do...

looking forward to the meetup

Read moreFirst Philadelphia Area Drupal Meetup Wiki Notes.....Good Stuff!
although held on a cold windy night...the first meetup for the philly area group warmed me up like a good cup of hot chocolate(ah...sorry couldn't resist)...
thank you Nate for posting the Event...and Ivan(quixoticlife) for creating this group. Just a note...Most of the attendees to the meetup were unaware of the Mid Atlantic Group and its close affinity to our area. We obviously would like to keep communication open with that group...and if it is suitable...work closely together.

Another victory for the democratic process! Looks like we have consensus on the a date and time for the first get together. I agree with quixoticlife that the first gathering should be informal, so people can get to know each other and we can discuss what we want the group to do going forward. I'm good with Barnes and Noble unless there are other suggestions.

Drupal Training for Educators
Hello, all,
On January 31 and February 1, I'll be running a two day training on using Drupal in the classroom. The training will be held in Philadelphia, at Science Leadership Academy.
So, if you're around Philadelphia and want to dig into using Drupal, come on down! These sessions are geared toward end users, as opposed to developers or site admins. The emphasis will be on training educators how to use Drupal in an online class or a blended learning environment.
Click here for an overview of the session.
