About Chengdu meetup!

cisliu's picture

Hi guys,

Chengdu meetup is scheduled on 02/25/2012, correct? The following are something I love to know about this meetup:

  1. Does it cost? If so, how much?
  2. Who are the speakers?
  3. What are the session topics?
  4. Where's the location? If possible, please give the address in Mandarin. I remember reading somewhere as "oasis" but have no idea where the oasis locates in Chengdu.
  5. How long will be the meetup generally?

Thanks a lot!

Best,
Cissy

Errmm! Wednesdays... & Location

cisliu's picture

Hi, Hyperglide,

Thanks so much for the reply! I did find where "Dave's Oasis" is now. However, Wednesdays does not work for me. I guess I'll try to make the 02/25 meetup once the location got nailed down.

I suggest it is somewhere near the center of the city so its fair to everyone. By the way, there's a great coffee place on the top of 第一城。It's a beautiful Korean coffee bar called "民土咖啡“(http://www.dianping.com/shop/2041714#index=1#shopId=2041714#page=1),very nicely decorated with quite a few meeting rooms with projectors. However, I guess they're quite expensive if one wants to reserve a room for meeting.

Best,
Cissy

We can adjust --

Hi Cissy,

The date was picked last year by the community but perhaps it is time to review the date to see if there is a better time to make the meetup work.

Can you share what days work best for you?

For myself I am flexible but prefer to keep it away from Mon or Friday.

For the coffee bar you suggested do you know what time they close? Do they have free wifi? Do they server beer?

Thanks,
Hg

About Chengdu meetup followup!

cisliu's picture

Hi, HyperGlide,

To answer your Qs:
1) Tu. and Thur. work best for me currently.
2) The Coffee bar I was talking about: yes, they have wifi; they serve beer; they close at midnight 0:00. Their phone is 028-8673-0998.

Hope this helps!

Thanks

@cisliu,

Thank you -- the community will discuss next meetup to see about an alternate day.

Be well!

p.s -- looking at your d.o. profile is a bit 'empty' can you share a bit on how or what you are doing with Drupal pls? :-)

The proposed topics by @WiredCraft seems a good fit. 1-Drupal Core 2-Drupal and Git 3-Drupal and Mobile Themes -- Kindly give us an update on the length of each topic and a short summary that we can use on the marketing material.

The local community discussed some ideas for self presented topics which included -- User Experience Building My First Drupal Site, Examples on how to use and extend Drupal beyond a CMS, making use of Drupal Commerce, server setup with AEGir and some others.

The topic of selection to be presented by @mdryan is using Eclipse http://eclipse.org/ to develop for drupal.

About the Chengdu meetup location??

cisliu's picture

HI, HG,

There is a Yujie East Street(not Road) 玉洁东街 in Chengdu, but its totally different from Ren Min South Road 人民南路.

So, I'm utterly confused about the location.

Please help! Thanks!

Hey This is what I get for

hyperglide's picture

Hey

This is what I get for copying right off their website.. Sorry.

Please see the following map link. -- http://j.map.baidu.com/1Sxad

The Bookworm

mdryan's picture

The Chinese name for the cafe is 老书虫. More details about the location:

http://www.gochengdoo.com/en/listings/item/boo_257/bookworm

Although the address is Renminnan Lu, it's actually a few meters up Yujie East Street, next door but one to this Bank of China which is on the corner of the two roads:

Hi cisliu

irishdan's picture

the bookworm is just of 人民南路, between 倪家桥 and 二环路. if you are going south down renmin nan lu then you should take the first right (sunjoy hotel is on the corner), the bookworm is up the street a little bit on your left.

You can see a map and directions here:
http://chengdu.beijingbookworm.com/files/2011/08/the_bookworm_location_m...

@irishdan's directions are

mdryan's picture

@irishdan's directions are correct, those on that PDF start with an error though:

Put your back to the front of the Consulate and you'l be facing south.

I'm pretty sure you'd actually be facing North...

Chengdu is small

Chengdu is a rather small, it's not likely you will be lost there.

@kurtzhong Like the way you
