User group meeting
Remember the new location. We're now meeting at the offices of OpenSourcery at 711 SE Ankeny St. Portland, OR 97214.
Mike will be doing a presentation, when I get a summary I'll post it here. Also we'll have some sort of a video chat from Kieran Lal, of the Drupal Association to drum up some volunteers for the booth at OSCON.
Comments
I'm open to suggestions
Drewish and I discussed new Drupal 6 form features/JS features such as tabledrag.js and how to implement it in your own module. I'll work up something on this unless there is interest in another topic.

An OSCON Social Event
A client of ours has volunteered a great space at 10th and Yamhilll for hosting an evening social event during OSCON. I posted details to the OSCON Wiki, but I'd like to discuss if the group is interested in making it a Portland Drupal Users Group event and if so, of what scale, etc.
wow great offer, is that SE
wow great offer, is that SE or SW? Is there a date attached to the space already?
In SW
It's in SW, central downtown. The dates available: Sunday July 20 (folks may not have arrived), Tuesday July 22 (but there's a big OSCON evening event), Thursday July 24, and Friday July 25 (a lot of people may be gone) are available. I'm leaning toward Thursday. (I put more on the wiki: http://groups.drupal.org/node/9839)
There are a couple of events
There are a couple of events already planned for Thursday July 24, including the SourceForge community awards and the BeerForge party. For the sake of attendance, I might look for another date.

A good date
Thanks, Thomas. I've been looking for a wiki that has a good listing of what's going on, but I've yet to find one.
Thinking about schedules, what about a Sunday night welcome to celebrate the code sprint, welcome early arrivals, and kick off the conference? The point would be less about introducing new people to drupal than to bring together the drupal folks who are in town (and anyone they care to invite). Obviously, there will be people who haven't arrived, but other nights are bound to conflict with larger events and other commitments, too.
Sunday sounds good to me
I think Sunday night meet and greet would be great.
Meeting Reminder
Just wanted to remind everyone about the Drupal Group meeting tomorrow night. Kieran will be doing a quick pitch for volunteers for OSCON via Skype/iChat and then Mike will be doing a presentation on the D6 Forms API (I think--hopefully he'll chime in if I'm wrong). Should be interesting so I hope to see you all there.
Measuring performance stuff

How to measure the memory used by each module
I'm sure there are others, please feel free to post your own.

Which PHP cache?
I've been using eAccelerator lately, and at one point had some memory benchmarks on it posted on my blog.
I'd love to hear what you are using in this case, and see the numbers with the opcode cache enabled and disabled.
