The 1st Drupal Meet-up of the New Year. If the 3rd is too soon after the holidays, comment below.
TOPIC(S): Open for discussion and open for volunteer presenters. Comment below.
LOCATION: Artengine M70 Lab at Arts Court, 2 Daly Avenue, Ottawa, ON which is across the street from the Rideau Centre and Novotel hotel.
Enter Arts Court from the front entrance, up all those stairs. Pass through the first two sets of doors to enter the foyer and walk straight to where the front hallway ends at the Ottawa Art Gallery. Turn LEFT and walk through two sets of doors. The Artengine Lab is on your RIGHT just after you pass through that 2nd set of doors.
Wheelchair access is possible via the door to the left of the front entrance. Ring the intercom bell at that door, and an attendant from the front desk will come down and open the door for you.

Party
How about a mini Drupal 7 Release Party (http://www.drupal7releaseparty.org/)?
Nice!
Sounds great to me. Who is going to register it on the site!
Definitely think it should be tied to the release party!

A Drupal 7 release party
A Drupal 7 release party sounds good to me.
I will register on drupal7releaseparty.org.
Anyone willing to "present" Drupal 7?
Thanks.
I'd be willing to present something
I think I'm the only core contributor in town for D7 and have been using it for 2 years now. Still there's so much I'm not familiar with or haven't had time to play with.
I've got a basic conference site up using D7 here http://a11yyow.ca - which if you're interested in accessibility issues it's worth registering for.

You can bank on 2-3 of us showing up for sure.
We'd be happy to sponsor pizza for the event?

Also 10th Birthday
I believe January also marks the 10th birthday of Drupal.
Are we on for Tomorrow? If So Where?
There were some ideas discussed above, but not sure there was consensus.
Discussion about this being a D7 release party, but not sure if it's official. Let's talk about this party if it is. Is there going to be pizza? Can we get a Drupal shaped pizza?
Can we get this settled here and find a time to meet. I'm still a bit under the whether but hope to be able to come!

The "party" is on
I'm planning on being there and hosting at Artengine's Lab. We've announced the party at www.drupal7releaseparty.org. Robin Galipeau is sponsoring pizza, not sure what he can do about the shape of the pizza..!
We could us some confirmation on a presenter? Or we could pick up some topics/tips at www.drupal7releaseparty.org.
I'm open.
Michael
That's Great!
Found the announcement here:

I did a D7 presentation at an earlier Drupal Groups session, but also at Drupal Camp Montreal:

Let's see how it goes and what folks are interested in. It would be interesting to talk to others who have played with it. So many advantages over D6.

Starting at 6 or 7?
Just noticed a discrepancy here in that it starts there at 18:00 rather than 19:00 which this list says.
http://www.drupal7releaseparty.org/canada/release-party-drupal-ottawa-us...
Looks like we might be able to make 10 folks there if everyone shows up. However, the last meeting was big from what I heard so hopefully this one will be too.
Robin, when is the pizza arriving? :)

D7?
Hey all, happy new year to everyone.
Is Mike going to be presenting on D7 or an Accessibility? I wasn't sure.
Also, does seem a bit odd we are doing this 4 days before official release party as well as on a holiday - but i'm in.

Moved location
In case anyone stumbles on this post. The arts court was locked up when we got there so we relocated to chez lucien near corner of dalhoisie and Murray. It's on Murray.
