2009-04-09 18:00 - 19:30 UTC Event type:
User group meeting
This is the first of what will become monthly meet-ups in Rhode Island
On Thursday April 9th come meet us in East Greenwich at 6PM! Since this is a casual meet-up, we will be Felicia's Coffee http://www.feliciascoffee.com/. For future meet-ups when we need more room, I have access to work space in Providence with conference rooms or there are several libraries available that provide meeting rooms in different parts of RI.
Proposed Agenda - Defining the Structure of Future Meet-Ups
- Introductions - names, background and what we would like to gain from the meet-up
- proposed format for future meet-ups
- brainstorm topics for future meet-ups (speakers, demos, etc)
- pick topic/leader for next meet-up
- unformatted time to discuss any issues/ideas you want to get feedback about (stumped on something technical, etc)
If anyone wants to throw in a agenda bullet - please feel free!

For those of you pondering
For those of you pondering if you should come or not -- yes come!
I'll be there, and I'll try to get the rest of Agaric to come. We're a free and open source web development shop who specializes in Drupal and the semantic web, with a philosophy of free and open documentation. That means, we'll openly brain storm on any issue you may have. And we have. We've been having a great time in the Metro West meet up, and we'd love to meet more people.
My personal speciality is deployment practices.
newbie
I have been developing software for last 10 years (mostly in C++), but would like to jump on the Web 2.0 band-wagon.
I am a beginner at Drupal/PHP/SQL and am looking fwd to some learning opportunities.
Any More?
Are there any more Meet-Ups planed? Great way to share ideas.
