Help move Drupal a crucial step closer to being a true Geospatial CMS!
The Drupal community and the Twin Cities Drupal Group invites us all for Geo June, a month-long series of events and collaborative projects. There will be coding, documenting and demonstrating solutions for data collection and mapping.
You can join in the fun by helping the issue queue for Geo and related modules, or by participating in other ways:
- Come to the Geo June Kickoff Barbecue, June 1: A decidedly offline event in Minneapolis sponsored by Advantage Labs. If you're in town, come to 2104 Stevens Ave South, Minneapolis, MN, 55404 to partake in grilled goodies and talk Geo June.
- Join the daily IRC Meetups, June 1-30 : Meet in #drupal-geo from 10AM-11AM (North America Central Time) to ask questions, get updates on progress, request assignments, collaborate and strategize.
- Blog in June about Drupal geo projects and Drupal as a GeoCMS. We could use the attention and would love to know what you're up to. If you have a feed that's pertinent to Geo June, please get in touch so we all can get it aggregated.
- Participate in the community. As always, the Mapping group on groups.drupal.org is your home for all things geospatial.
- Participate in the TC Drupal Documentation Sprint. June 20 As part of this local community event, we'll be organizing a documentation sprint for Geospatial modules. We'll also be available via IRC for those of you playing along at home.
- Organize other events locally or online, dealing with any type of Mapping or Geospatial activities in Drupal. Be sure to post it in the mapping group so everyone can get involved.
- Contribute financially We can use a lot of help to make sure this sprint is productive and sustainable. Read on for details, or visit our secure payment form to help out.
