Event type:

User group meeting

Hi all welcome who are either Drupal developers, users and even if you are considering using Drupal for your website. I'd also encourage organisations selling Drupal services to bring potential customers along and hear about Drupal as a CMS.

We'll have some live demos of websites currently used by NZ Organisations and what modules were used.

Location:

Police National Headquarters
180 Molesworth Street
Wellington

what time on the 29th? 7pm would be good, I think. Gives people a chance to have dinner first

what time

Time is 5:30 to 8pm according to notice - suits me as I don't want to go home first, would rather go straight from work and eat later

A good meeting is a short meeting

I think the link says it well.

I can't come on the 29th (going to be in OZ) but for future meetings I am way more likely to attend if we're not going past 90 minutes.

Parking

KiwiFellows,
Do you have locations for parking around the area, and any access instructions to get access into the building/floor.
May be able to provide assistance for you if required.

yes! Sorry don't know why it came out like that. Thank you for asking. Look Forward to seeing you there.

I hope this meet up goes

I hope this meet up goes well. I wish I could make it to network with you all.

If someone could please bring up and discuss DrupalSouth (http://groups.drupal.org/node/26217); make sure everyone knows about it, and suggest that folk consider helping organise it. We could do with some more hands and feet in Wellington! Most urgent at the moment is some Drupal 5 content admin and theming to get the Wellington website ready for public. We also need more sponsorship, and help getting a high-bandwidth internet link into the venue.

Thanks!

Bevan/

Thank you

Hi Bevan,
Yes would be great to catch up. We're having an open floor discussion at the end and so will make this known. Will let you know how it goes.

cheers,

Ben

Next meeting?

Are there any plans for another drupal meetup anytime in the near future?

I don't know about a casual

I don't know about a casual meetup like this one, but DrupalSouth Wellington (a mini-conference) is just 2 months away.
