Kevron and I are probably gonna commute in from Milwaukee. Any suggestions on places we could get work done during the day (quietish + comfy + free wifi) before the meeting?

I'll be working at a coffee

I'll be working at a coffee shop nearby. If you want to join me I'll probably be at Ground Zero http://www.groundzerocoffee.com/ which is down the road. It is pretty quiet (music is a little louder than I'd like but not too distracting) and the wifi is pretty good.

Madison group?

Is there a group for Madison-area Drupal developers that I can join? I'd like to know about future meetups! I've been a web developer for years but just got started with Drupal. I attended DrupalCon in anticipation of a big project coming up, but found a lot was still over my head and I could use more regular discussion with other users. Thanks!

Hi LeeAnn

There is a MadDUG that meets monthly, but probably not in March because of the Con (unless there is interest...). If you are subscribed to this group you will get notice of upcoming meetings. Hopefully we can get something scheduled for early April.

I look forward to seeing you at the next meetup. In the meantime, you can post questions and get help right here in the drupal groups.

April MadDUG meeting?

We haven't had one since February... is there something planned?

Good idea... I think a lot of

Good idea... I think a lot of people were sort of Drupal'ed out after DrupalCon but we've had a month now to recuperate. :)
Potential agenda items:

  1. Network a bit
  2. Share stuff from DrupalCon for those who couldn't make it
  3. Keep the Madison Drupal community in the loop about the DrupalCamp WI planning
  4. Chat about D7
  5. Anything else?

It'd be nice to meet somewhere quieter this time; we've been at a lot of bars the past few times. That's great for kicking back and hanging out, but it can make conversation difficult sometimes. Any ideas?

I'm up for meeting

Tuesdays and Thursdays are good for me at least until fall!

How about May?

OK - we skipped March because of DrupalCon. April we kinda forgot.... let's do MAY!!!!!

Anybody?

Tonight?

The first Thursday in March is, um, tonight. I think there's a DrupalCampWI meetup planned for next week sometime. Maybe we could make that the MadDUG meetup for the month?

Er... tonight is a bit short notice...

The DrupalCamp planning meetings are a lot of talking about rooms and dates and sponsorship, so not sure there. Thoughts?

Yes. Two different things

DrupalCamp planning meetings have been just that, I thought. Planning for Camp.

MadDUG meetings are for sharing and learning from each other about Drupal. I'm looking for a May MadDUG meeting, myself, to be separate from the planning. The meetings were changed to Wednesdays for a while, up until March. Now some folks say going back to Thursday will be better. How about having MadDUG on the 19th this month, since the 12th is taken for a DrupalCampWI planning meeting. At that meeting, we could set up future meetings.

The two were separate in the past years, to my understanding. I'd love to get MadDUG going again! :-)

Works for me

The 19th would work fine for me. Any suggestions on a location?

I'm gone on the 19th

I think I'll probably be in New York that week, so I guess you'll have to carry on without me.
