The February meeting of the San Diego DUG is happening on Wednesday February 15th at 7:30pm at the Hall of Champions in Balboa Park. That's the THIRD Wednesday and half an hour later than usual, due to another event on Feb. 8.
As usual, we'll start off with introductions and news items. We will also briefely review SANDcamp 2012, especially lessons learned.
For the main presentation, Jonathan Dietz will share some of the process he and the team at Digitaria took to build the new Taylor Guitars site.
Drupal 7, over 150 Contrib modules, Media Module, Ubercart 7 (versus commerce), Panels, Apache Solr, Varnish, Features, Views, roughly 110k lines of code written spread across 20 custom modules and the custom theme, and much, much more.
Next, we'll get into some lighting talks...
Lightning talks give anyone (and I mean anyone - you, the person next to you and the one across the room) the chance to discuss a recent Drupal thought, observation, or experience that takes five minutes or less to talk about. You can teach us something, wonder out loud why X doesn't work like you think it should, or ask questions about some Drupally thing you're struggling to understand. The only rule for Lightning Talks is that you're going to be stopping at five minutes whether you're done or not. Other than that's it's fair game, so step up and have fun!
We'll try to save some time at the end for general mingling and catching up.
Newcomers are always welcome, bring any of your friends that might be interested in learning about Drupal. We hope to see you on Wednesday at the Balboa Park Hall of Champions.
