Lightning Rounds

It's been a while since we've done lightning rounds, which are generally quick, informative, and fun. Here's what we've got so far:

Lightning rounds are generally limited to 5-7 minutes, but this will vary depending on how many we have.

July Drupal Challenge

We'll be voting on a task or challenge that can be solved by Drupal in any number of ways. The July meeting will then focus on solutions people come up with. More information here.

Modules 101

This may be overkill for a lightning session meeting, but if there's time left, and anybody wants to talk for a few minutes about a module no Drupal user should be without, we'll do this too.

Logistics

We meet at the OpenSourcery offices at 1636 NW Lovejoy St. Portland, OR 97209. NOTE: Please be aware that the developers at OpenSourcery will be working right up to event time. We ask that you arrive no earlier than 5:50pm. Thank you!

After the presentation finishes we'll walk over to the Lucky Lab NW for food and drink.

If there is time and interest I could prepare a short demo of the DBTNG module for Drupal 6, which would also be a developers sneak peak into Drupal 7.

For new users...

Would people be interested in a synthesis / recap of the lullabot theming workshop? Theming was really daunting to me before that workshop, and since there are some new users it might be useful.
