Hey everybody,

I'm psyched to announce a series of bi-weekly Drupal meetups in Brevard County on a variety of topics in a new, central location.

Starting Monday, November 7th, and continuing every other Monday (through December 19th for now), we'll be having a meetup at The Shamrock Room in Cocoa Village. For those of you familiar with Cocoa Village, The Shamrock Room is owned by, and directly above, Ryan's Pizza. There will be no charge for us to use the room, but I did promise that we'll buy food and drinks and tip well.

Wifi is available, but spotty (what else is new for Cocoa Village?) Presenters should be prepared to do their presentation locally.

I have a number of presenters who have already tentatively committed to attending, we just need to work out specific dates. Topics will include:

  • Theming with the Omega base theme
  • Drupal project management
  • Module development
  • Mapping in Drupal
  • Drupal-specific server configuration and performance
  • Version control with Git

I'll be posting info on the first one shortly.

Thanks,
-mike

Time is of the essence

I'm really excited that the meeting will be so much closer to Orlando, but what time will the meeting begin? It may be an issue because I have class on Mondays.

6:30pm

Thanks for the prompt response :)

But just saying, that link doesn't have the actual start time of the event on it either.

It actually does, it's just

It actually does, it's just in a really hard-to-find place. Look under the "submitted by ultimike..." stuff.

Regardless, it's a good point, and I'll update the text to include the time.

Thanks,

My mistake

Sorry about that, but thanks for accommodating the idiots like myself who can't read military time XD

Bi-Weekly Brevard Drupal Meetup Series

Glad to see you are starting this, as I was so bummed out about not being able to attend the Drupal Camp. Should be really insightful and lots of fun and good food, as well!

Don't suppose Skype

Don't suppose Skype participation would work too well, huh.

probably not

Unfortunately, probably not. The Wifi is sketchy as it is...

Sorry,

Mike, judging on the picture you sent, it looks like a pretty good venue for the meetings. Maybe we should change our classroom location to the Shamrock Room, ha!

Looking forward to this

Mike, I have my scheduled league Tennis match at 4:00 pm, today, and depending on how long it takes, I might be 30 minutes late. But I'm definitely coming!

Gonna Try...

I'll do my best to make it. Having a central location is great for the group as a whole, but it hurts me cuz I live in S. Brevard (way south). Hope to see you there!
