Join us for our next meet-up graciously hosted by East Library in Colorado Springs. Note that this meeting is on the second Thursday, after DrupalCon. We'll start socializing at 6:30, and the actual chatter will begin at 7:00. Unfortunately, our host locks up at 9, so we'll have to be out by then.
Comment with what you would like to see on the agenda, and this event description will be updated accordingly. We'll be reviewing what we learned at DrupalCon at this meeting as well. If you want to talk about something, we'll definitely talk about it.
Regular DBUG attendees are always very welcome!

Agenda
At least three of us will be at Drupalcon DC during the first week of March. Each of us will come back with our best of the conference.
If any of you see a session of particular interest at the Drupalcon DC site, let us know and we'll try to give a synopsis of the presentation at our March meeting.

I'll do a recap of "Migration: Not Just For the Birds"
I was very excited about the "Migration: Not Just For the Birds" session from Moshe Weitzman and Mike Ryan. They did a presentation about how to migrate data from an existing CMS or website into Drupal. We discussed this topic a little bit at the February SCUG meetup. I'd enjoy sharing what I learned in this session. I'll try to keep it about 10-15 minutes.
I'll make another list of "cool tips and tricks I learned" just in case there's time for that sort of thing as well.

Strategery
I'll could provide fodder for a discussion of the keynote, major issues and a number of the business sessions.
(I really loved a number of the performance tuning sessions, so we could also discuss some of those sessions if there is interest.)

Taxonomy and Security
I could talk about the Taxonomy session and the Beginning security sessions, as well as the Documentation Sprint and the Usability BoF.
April Meeting Preview
Our April meeting (on April 2) will feature presentations of business users of local Drupal sites. You'll want to invite your bosses and non-technical folks considering Drupal sites to hear how Drupal sites contributed to these local organizations:
In addition to these presentations, I am very excited to hear the interchange of opinions and experiences from various business perspectives.
We have the large meeting room at the East Library reserved, but mark your calendar (April 2) today. We'll post the signup here about March 13.
