The High Desert Drupal group meets the first Wednesday of every month. This local group is a nice place for people to learn and talk about Drupal, a world popular content management system (CMS). We also talk about web development in general, covering all aspects from planning, design, development, and maintaining a web site. RSVP is not required and attendance is free. Tell all your friends!
What are we going to talk about?
Open Atrium
Open Atrium is a team portal starter package. What makes it unique is that it's extensible and customizable. --openatrium.org
For the first presentation of the evening, Helior Colorado from ActiveLAMP will give us an overview of Open Atrium. We will learn what Open Atrium is, why you would use it, who would use it, how to get it setup and installed, and finally how to use the system.
Version Control
After Helior's presentation, Tom Friedhof will talk about managing your code in a version control system. Even if you're a lone developer, there are benefits to keeping your work in version control. In this presentation we will look at two specific version control systems. We will look at Subversion and git. This presentation will be a small "branch" (pun intended) of a bigger presentation that Tom Friedhof will be giving at the upcoming DrupalCampLA. At DrupalCampLA I'll talk in more detail about Revision Control in regard to Drupal development.
After the presentations we'll open up the floor to the community where anyone can ask questions, show off the stuff they've been working on, or anything else that is worth talking about. Hope to see you there, and tell your friends.
