Open Source Frameworks Presentation : Oct 25

Start: 
2007-10-25 18:30 - 21:30 Etc/GMT

Join us on October 25th for an introduction to Open Source web application frameworks. A framework is a reusable software design which improves the development process by letting a programmer focus on the business-specific tasks of a project rather than repetitive, common tasks like database access, templating, and session management. We'll learn more about web application frameworks in general and explore a number of today's most popular ones.

Inspiration at the Meet Up

I just announced that the Embedded Media Field now supports custom media url's, but I forgot to mention that the idea for that support came from the meet-up last week, specifically in a conversation with jkopel & Jen Simmons. At least one other (whose username I can't find here), and probably others; sorry if I forgot to mention you. I met a lot of cool new people here.

Venues for hosting events

Let's keep a page of places we might be able to hold events:

Educational/Presentation events

This was just a thought I had... our Campus in Langhorne [www.pbu.edu] is about a block or so from the Langhorne Septa station. We have classrooms, conference rooms, lecture halls, a wireless network... (Joshua Benner )

Moved to Harrisburg

I've just moved to Harrisburg, PA. I work as a developer with Advomatic. Recent projects of mine: Views Slideshow, Embedded Media Field, Drupal FTP, and RPG. Some of my personal sites are Drupal RGP, Drupal Hub (demo for Embedded Media Field and Views Slideshow), and Spindowners (an upcoming web-based rpg).

I look forward to being active in this group -- I just moved here last week, so I probably can't come to the meetup on Tuesday, but I will definitely make sure to be present when I can.

PHP/Drupal Meetup June 19

Start: 
2007-01-19 19:00 - 21:00 America/New_York

We're back at Gullifty's next week for another summer outdoor PHP/Drupal meetup. Last time was another nice mix of folks -- with some heroically driving from New Jersey; once again, nobody taking advantage of the nearby transit stop :)

Anyway, the menu once again is all things Drupal, PHP, Open Source, and whatever else is on your mind.

We'll also be discussing and planning our first educational/presentation style event in the fall. I already have one victim volunteer willing to present. We'll be looking for more, and also discussing a location, timeframe, and ways to dragging inviting more people.

Please RSVP at http://php.meetup.com/353/ to let us know to look for you!

Thanks,
Nate

Philadelphia Area Drupal/PHP Meetup Mashup

Start: 
2007-05-22 19:00 - 21:00 US/Eastern

Well, the April PHP meetup drew a nice crowd of 8 people. We were seated at 2 tables of 4 each, and our table basically talked Drupal all night! So it's clear there's some overlap and I'd like to play that up. I'd also like to try to correct the problem of being stuck in one position all night, not being able to mix up conversation. So, I'd like to try to get the PHP Meetup crowd and the Drupal Group crowd together for an evening.

When: Tuesday, May 22, 2007 at 7:00 PM

RSVP: http://php.meetup.com/353/calendar/5681296/

Where: Gullifty's

$block['content'];
?>
  • B article ()
