American Fork, UT 84003

7:30 - 7:45
Introductions. We always have some new people at the meetings, so it is always helpful to get more familiar with the members.
7:45 - 8:00
I will present Validation API. 5 minute presentation on how to set it up and work with it. Then, extra time set-up for questions and discussion.
8:00 - 9:00
Theme presentations. We had a lot of members interested in discussion of theming topics, and so it would be great to set aside a nice chunk of time for a couple people to present. Then, have open discussions about the ideas and other aspects of theming.
9:00 - 9:30
If Odin Dev is ok with this. After the main discussion has been completed, we could have this sort-of optional hands-on time. Where members can stay and help out the newer members learn about how to do specific things within Drupal. For example, a member is having a difficult time working with Taxonomy+Views integration in Drupal. They can ask questions about their specific problems and get help from another member that is more experienced in the area.

It's snowing pretty hard right now. 2:30pm. Not sure if that will prevent people from traveling but let us know if the weather is going to keep any of you from attending. We may need to reschedule if attendance seems low.

It seems that the snow let up a little bit last night. Did the meeting still happen? If so, how did it go? I look forward to reading the minutes from it. Hope everyone is well. The next meeting that I make it to I will be sure and bring my HD camcorder so we can record it and hopefully upload it for the rest of the group to see. That may spark some interest for future meet-ups. Let me know your guys' thoughts.

It was good. Great discussions and suggestions from the group. Curtis took the minutes again, so I am assuming they will be posting those soon. Next meeting was tentatively planned for March 17th with a possible session from Kyle about Drupalcon and more, so hope to see you there next time (wear green).

I think I missed your joke

A video would be cool

The video is a good idea, sometimes it's hard to travel.

Yes, traveling is very hard

Yes, traveling is very hard especially from the north, and with full-time school. I need to try and plan this out so that I for sure make it. I'm busy with school Mon and Wednesdays, so other days are fine for me. Tuesdays aren't great, but I will make it if that's what works for everyone else. I will put the 17th of March on my Calendar for now.
