Hi Everyone,
I'm happy about all the positive feedback this proposal has gotten online and offline. And I'm delighted by the group's decision to move forward with this experiment, dedicating the first hour of our meetups from now until Drupalcon Denver to improving our own Drupal chops, finding ways to contribute to Drupal core, and developing resources to make it easier for other people to do the same.

Feedback on last night's proposal
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for a great meetup last night. I really appreciate you sharing the floor with me for a good chunk of time to try something new.

And the core core team feels exhausted and burned out. Drupal needs more people to contribute to core.
Solution:

Improved ical feed (Calendar and Date modules)
Have you been frustrated by bugs in the ical feed generated by the Calendar module? I have! I have been working on patches to improve the situation. You can help by reviewing and testing them.
For D6, see this issue for the Calendar module and this one for the Date module.
For D7, see this issue for the Calendar module.
