I've been asked to explore a Drupal pre-conference workshop for the ACM National conference in Portland. This would be a hand's on workshop that would help those interested in deploying Drupal for their access center.

I've been asked to do this because I'm building the ACM National site in Drupal and exploring the concept of sites hosted on sub domains of the ACM National site. I'd like to come up with a way to have a template/profile for the center that can be easily customized.

Would anyone be willing to come to Portland to help teach/facilitate the workshop? I will look into room and board compensation.
Does anyone have any ideas/input that could help?
Could anyone offer contacts I should pursue?

I was able to attend some of DrupalConDC which helped a lot in terms of what Drupal 7 could offer.

Thanks,

  • Keri

I'd like to come to Portland

Hi Keri, I've been looking for a good excuse to come up and visit some friends and I'd like to attend an ACM national conference. I've presented at two regionals on related topics. I can also help with pulling together some kind of template. Were you thinking about a template in the theme sense or something more like a distribution profile? Also was at DCDC09.

The Open Media Project

The Open Media Project recently hosting a Drupal Camp and is considering another one during the ACM conference. It might be worthwhile to organize an event together.

I'm also interested to hear more about ACM hosted Drupal sites. Is there more information about this project available somewhere?
