Event type: 
User group meeting

The inaugural meeting of Drupalistas from the south Denver metro area: the Denver Tech Center, Lone Tree, Parker, Highlands Ranch ... you get the idea.

As the first time meeting for those of us on the south-side, we'll have some organizational things to talk about, I'm sure. Beyond that, anyone want to offer a starter topic; perhaps an introduction to Drupal?

And thanks to the folks at the Innovation Pavilion for making their space available for this! It's a great location: right off I-25 and Dry Creek, near the Ikea.

Did you get someone to present?

I can present a shorter version of my proposal (not accepted) to DrupalCon Portland 2013:

http://portland2013.drupal.org/session/managing-big-data-drupal

I can cover Management, Architectural and Technical points (as time and interest allow) of the Federal Energy Management Program-funded project, "Fleet Sustainability Dashboard" at https://federalfleets.energy.gov/FleetDASH/

Tag, you're it!

Databoy, that'd be awesome; thank you!

How long a presentation do you envision? I think we'll want to leave time for questions/answers, group feedback on future presentations, as well as introductions, much as we do at the Denver meeting.

I'll arrange projector and network access.

You're welcome

Thank you for all your work towards this!

I'll plan for 30 minutes, tops.

Hold off on presentations?

Can we hold off on presentations for the first meeting? Starting a new meetup gives us a rare opportunity to reach new audiences. There are 800 people in this group, and I'd guess less than 100 go to the meetups. Some of that is due to schedule and location, which are already different for this new meetup, but I think it's safe to assume at least some of these people aren't attending meetups because they don't like the presentation format we generally do at the central Denver meetup. So I'd ask that we have at least one meetup without the presentation format to discuss whether we really want to do the same presentation format for Denver South meetups.

Notes!
