We had a great first meeting

Thanks to Eric Wagner, Dave Sahloff, Ben Stoutenburgh, Joseph Apuzzo, Sean Dague, David Wagenheim, and Vonn New for coming out to our first in-person meetup on Saturday at the Poughkeepsie Library.

Thanks to Joseph for sending this picture of this geeky bunch, he's behind the camera:

We decided that we'd like to continue meeting once a month on the second Wed of the month at 6 p.m. Come winter, we may change to a different day of the week to accommodate the curling season.

Every time we meet, we'll do a round of introductions and check in with what we're working on.
We set aside some time to go around an name a module or modules that we recently discovered and how we found them useful.
We'll also set aside a time for people to bring questions for the group to consider and respond to.

Every other month, a member will present something about a topic. The next time we meet, Vonn will present on Drupal Taxonomy. Other topics that have been suggested include:
payment gateways
ubercart
civicrm
security in general
hosting options
scaling – planning for success
drupal 7
layout/theming for mobile devices
organic groups
trend in interactions
cck/views/panels

In the months in which we don't have a topic, we'll have site critiques. Members will be asked to sign up in advance and will then have time to show a project they've worked on and get feedback from the group.

Vonn has requested the meeting room in the Adriance Library for 6/8/11 at 6 p.m. and will let you know here when the library gets back on if it is available then.

Pencil in this for the next meeting, it will be confirmed later:
Wed, June 8, 6 p.m.
Charwat Room, Adriance Library
Poughkeepsie
Topic: Taxonomy, presented by Vonn New
