We will be hosted by the MIT Drupal Group in Cambridge in Building E51 - Tang Center in E51-145.
Parking and Transportation:
After 5pm, there is an unattended MIT lot called Hayward: http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=P5
Lightning Talks
We'll do lightening talks for both hours of the meeting. Each volunteer will get up to 10 minutes to ask questions of the group, present your recent Drupal work, or other lead Drupal discussion. This is an open floor, and no preparation is required.
Dinner
After the meetup, some of us will continue the conversation over dinner at MIT's Muddy Charles Pub. We will likely pre-order some dinner so it meets us there. We'll take a count about half way through the meeting.
Please plan on bringing $10 to participate in pre-ordering food and some drinks. If you would like to sponsor dinner, comment below and organizers will reach out. You will be recognized at the meeting as well as given the chance to do a featured talk.

Peter Farrow will be leading this meetup and our August meetup. Thanks Peter.
We decided to cancel the July meetup since it is July 3, right before a holiday.
Hope many of you can make it out on Tuesday.
links to taxonomy modules
I would like to give a lightning talk about a couple of useful modules related to taxonomy. For convenience, I will post the links ahead of time:
Taxonomy access fix (D7 only): a small, simple module that does just what it says. If you want to let a user manage just one vocabulary on your site, you should install this module.
Better Exposed Filters (D6 and D7): Two or three months ago, someone asked about how to use an exposed taxonomy filter (for a view) and search for content tagged by the selected term or by any child (or descendant) term. With BEF and a few lines of jQuery, I was able to do this.
I'm looking forward to your
I'm looking forward to your talk!
@benjifisher the solution
@benjifisher the solution you shown at the meetup, has a limit of 2000 characters in URL, which should be OK in most of the cases.

Thanks for the reference.
@TechNikh:
Thanks for the reference. I think the 2000-character limit is enough for the site I presented. In other situations, I guess I would have to get the exposed filter (from Views) to use POST rather than GET.
If anyone is interested in where to put several lines of CSS and a few lines of jQuery, I have made a little repository for my sub-theme on GitHub: https://github.com/benjifisher/Foo-theme .
