Hello, fellow OPublishers!

Just wanted to know if there are any OPs in New York that want to meet up and connect / share / learn and grow together. Maybe even co-work weekly?

I'm running one medium-sized magazine site on OP, and perhaps moving to another -- would love to sit down and talk about it, the good and the bad, and hear how people are using it.

Hi kenficara. Can you share

Hi kenficara. Can you share your reasons to move from OP to another platform? I would love to read a post about this.

We moved the magazine from an

We moved the magazine from an old ColdFusion implementation to Drupal -- for the simple reason that the old system was outdated and unstable, so they needed an upgrade, and Drupal was the right choice.

We used OpenPublish because I'd read and heard a lot about it and we needed a newsroom-oriented solution for Drupal. But we've ended up overriding a lot of its functionality which leaves us in a somewhat complex place as far as upgrades and such. So I'd be interested to talk about how OP users see the future of the distro.

Hi, Scout, Rajdeen and Kenficara!

Thanks for responding!

Looks like we're finally getting the ball rolling on a possible meetup. And if you guys would really like to connect / share / learn your OP experience in NYC, let's work together and make it happen.

I just googled and found a coworking space we could possibly use: https://www.deskwanted.com/coworking-space/wix-lounge-512.html

Was thinking we could all first meet there (or wherever is best for everyone)... on a Friday afternoon, after lunch (or whenever it's convenient for all)... but definitely let me know what you think?

Thanks again! Hope to meetup with you guys soon!
