Hey New Yorkers, NYC Camp (aka ‘nice camp’) is just under a month away and we’ve got an epic event planned for you! Be sure to register for your free ticket soon, as the sign-up rate is moving at a swift pace and we’re over 50% of the way towards our target of 400+ attendees … with our great schedule, we’re going to fill-up, and tickets will run out very soon.
We’re looking forward to the keynote by Earl Miles (creator of Views, Panels and CTools modules to name a few), as well as a Views in Core sprint.
We’re also really pumped to have some awesome speakers coming to NYC Camp, including:
-
chx, the legendary core contributor and leader of the mission to make Drupal Mongo DB friendly
-
Jay Batson, co-founder of Acquia and Web Engagement Management guru
-
Karen Stevenson, Lullabot engineer and maintainer of some of the most important contrib modules in Drupal, including CCK, Date and Calendar (to name a few)
-
Ken Rickard, Director of Development/Professional Services Palantir and maintainer of the amazing Workbench module (among others)
-
Matt Cheney, Partner at Chapter 3, Co-Founder of Pantheon, and a maintainer of the Panopoly distro
-
Jacob Singh, a Principal Engineer at Acquia and contributor to many modules
There’s much more to come, but the NYC Camp speaker line-up is already too good to be missed.
This is your chance to share ‘center stage’ in the Big Apple with some of Drupal’s brightest, so propose your session asap! We’re extending the session submission deadline until end of day on Friday June 29, and we’ll begin to announce accepted sessions starting on Monday July 2nd. Although we want some fantastic beginner and intermediate sessions, we're calling out to all the hardcore devs to submit plenty of advanced and expert sessions. Remember, NYC Camp is all about accelerated learning, and helping attendees conquer Drupal's steepest learning curves.
