The base of the site is configured. I will be adding more information as it becomes available but I wanted to invite the local community to register and share any problems, concerns, or suggestions before I spread the word with Colorado, Las Vegas, and San Diego. Are tehre any other communities that we should specifically notify. Colorado and San Diego have asked to be notified and it seems silly to notify San Diego without also notifying Las Vegas.
Thanks for your help. We'll call this beta testing, but it must be short as we need to let others know sooner rather than later. Thanks to davad and jeremyr for the site configuration help. As a note, I would like a couple of people to help make decisions about the conference planning details. I just want to make sure that the decisions made are not just what I think people would enjoy (food, organization, snacks, events, etc.). Even if it is just a group to float ideas past before putting them on the site. Any volunteers?

Sorry about the additional discussion
I probably should have put this on the old one but wanted to draw attention to the fact that the site is up now. The url (which I left off of the original discussion starter) is drupalcamputah.org. If you want to get involved please speak up. Thanks.

Fixes
Do you want people to point out areas that need to be fixed or should be looked at here or somewhere else?
Here should work nicely.

Registration looks good
I just registered for the camp. The site looks good, and I was able to register without a problem. One thing I noticed is the registration confirmation email still just has the module's default text. Not a big deal, but something that probably should be updated.
Anyway, nice work!
Signup or UberCart?
I went to replace the default email text for the signup notifications and found that this particular COD package has the Signup module enabled AND UberCart for registrations. I'm not sure if anyone knows but are we supposed to disable one or the other?
As it stands right now you can "sign up" via either one or both. But which should it be?
Perhaps the signup module is meant to be used to signup for sessions once they have registered for the event through UC?
Log in link
You should add a Log in link next to the Register link. It's not obvious that the latter takes you to the former, and as more content as added to the site, that confusion will get worse.
happy to help
@tjsmith Great work getting the registration site up. We can help with the planning aspect. It should definitely be a group to help decide, so please consider us part of that group.
Also, what's the plan for session proposals? Is it up/down voting with COD module? Should we start adding the proposals listed on the planning page?
I forgot about those
Would you take some time to either nudge the people on that list to add their sessions or add them yourself if you feel comfortable with that. Right now we are just gathering session proposals. We will use the voting module to help select the sessions that people are most interested in. Thanks.
