Library BoF at DrupalCon Portland?

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Only local images are allowed. I know a couple of library people are going to DrupalCon in Portland in a week or two.

Looks to me like a great opportunity to get together and talk shop. So how about if we organize a Drupal4Lib BoF -- maybe on the Wednesday (5/22) sometime mid-day or in the early afternoon?

Topics could be open or suggested ahead of time. People could present projects they're working on, ask whatever questions they want. It'd be a great time!

Feel free to leave a suggestion here or email me back. Is this a good general time to meet? Do you have a topic you'd want to suggest?

Any feedback is appreciated! And hope to see you in Portland!

This will be my first DrupalCon and I would love to meet other librarians working with Drupal!

Great idea Leo, will be coming from Ottawa Public Library and would like to hear what others are working on. We're embarking on a couple projects so we'd be interested to get others feedback. Tuesday mid-day would be better but Wednesday would work too.

I'm in

I'm new to Drupal Con and Drupal and would love to learn more. Both Tuesday and Wednesday works for me.

Sounds good

Wednesday works for me, too. It looks like there is no online prescheduling of BoFs this time -- it all has to be done in person at the conference. http://portland2013.drupal.org/program/bofs

Yup, starting on Tuesday of the conference itself.

Room Capacity?

Hey Leo & friends,

I got here early! (Sunday.) How many people would you guess are going to come to the BoF? There's already a board up at the Convention Center to set up BoFs. 7 of 8 rooms are still left for the Weds 10:45 time slot. Room capacities from 20-45 people. If you have a good idea of how many people will be coming I'd be happy to sign us up for a room.

Hi Jennifer,

We'll have 20+ people. If you can sign us up, that would be great. I'll be heading over on Monday a little after 4pm.

Thanks.

I am in!

No Signup Board Today

It looks like they took down the signup board. So, whoever gets here first on Monday, let's sign in for an appropriate room size. There's a 20-person space and I think the next one up is 35 people. Whatever works!

No Problem!

First, thanks for making the trip. We'll just get the room tomorrow!
