Mini-Calendar with links to the UC Calendar
Has anyone suggestions for an existing module that takes an RSS, XML, or iCalendar feed and generates a mini calendar with links to the UC Calendar? I think it's a matter of using the rss feed from the UC Calendar to filter out the active dates and associated hyperlinks to those active dates, then generating the calendar. The site linked below has the exact calendar I'm looking for, however it was created using Wordpress rather than Drupal:

We’ve launched a new Drupal site for Human Resources at UC Berkeley, which I’ve added to the http://groups.drupal.org/berkeley/resources page.

Are there LOCAL Drupal Themers and Developers available in the Bay Area?
Hi there!
A few days ago, we posted two messages in the Bay Area, Berkeley and Silicon Valley Users Groups looking for Drupal Themers and Drupal Developers interested in working with a Drupal Shop of the Bay Area (Web + Mobile, Inc.). Since these are local groups, it was a surprise for us to find that 99% of the messages we have received came from abroad and that the number of local ones was really small.

UC Berkeley Modules
Given the large number of Drupal sites at the University of California, Berkeley, it seems that there must be a lot of duplicated effort in both module and theme development.
In the realm of module development, I know that many of us have struggled with integrating CalNet Authentication (CAS) with the CalNet Directory (LDAP) and something like the RealName module. Others must have struggled with properly integrating the Berkeley Events Calendar with their site. There was a UC Berkeley starter theme floating around (based on Zen) for a while.
Would anybody like to join me in curating a selection of (custom) modules and themes which are broadly useful to the campus community?
