Is there a regular meeting of the Lansing Drupal Users Group?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

If so, where and when?

If not, would people be interested if we were to organize one? How often? Requested topics? Suggested speakers?

I'd be interested

I'm certain there is no regular meeting, but I'd be into a bi monthly or monthly meet up/discussion. Not sure where we could do it, although a while back there was a guy who expressed interest in hosting one at his place of business. I'm sure that post is still somewhere on here, it was last year around this time. Maybe he's still into it.

Hello PaschalHackler & abrahamso & kwfinken,
Yes, we are still here and would be glad to host a drupal meet-up in Lansing. How about some time during the last week in June? I'd prefer a late afternoon session (3PM or so). Do you have a preferred day of week?

We have a nice facility for such a meeting. Do you know of any others who might be interested?
Thanks,
Peter Wagner

Due to my work schedule, it

Due to my work schedule, it would have to be an evening meet-up (any day but Wednesday) or a Friday afternoon. While we have to check with the administration for permission, our web services unit at the MSU Libraries would also be interested in hosting if Peter's location does not work out.

Peter, where are you located?

Meeting

Friday afternoon sounds good, around 3:30 or 4, preferably. Should we say tentatively June 28th at 4pm? If you guys want to hash out the location and finalize the date and time, that'd be great. Just keep us posted here.

Hi guys,

I just moved to Lansing recently and I use Drupal for a few school-related projects I'm working on as a grad student. Would love to meet other Drupalers in Lansing/East Lansing and get to know you. Please keep me posted about future meetings.

Meet Up

PaschalHackler's picture

Hi, Ashley. Welcome to Lansing.

I'm not sure if the last meet up actually took place or not, as I was called out of town on a project for a few weeks at the end of June/beginning of July. I'd still be interested in having a meeting, if anyone else is so inclined.

Let's talk about a Lansing Drupal group again.

Next Meeting!

Computer Center room 215 is reserved for our next user group meeting. Aug. 27th 6:30PM. There are several places to park on campus for free after 6pm. The easiest is in the metered spaces in front of the Computer Center and Hannah Administration Buildings. (See http://maps.msu.edu/interactive/index.php?location=cc.)

Upcoming Meetings:

August 27 Module = Layer Slider, Keynote = Commerce
September 24 Module = views? Panels? Keynote = Design Related

ListServ:

Dennis Boone has generously offered to establish a listserv for our group. When he establishes the listserv, I will send out a note to this list for interested people to sign up. This will allow us to exchange questions and answers for the issues we all face in Drupal.

Website:

If someone would be interested in hosting and/or designing a website for our group (in Drupal of course), please let me know.

Notes from July meeting:

Email finkenb2@mail.lib.msu.edu to ask for a copy of the handout.
WebForm 4.0alpha10 was released this 8/8/2013. It claims to export in XLSX format and supports multiple email recipients for each select list item. Worth a look!

kwfinken, If you need help

kwfinken,

If you need help with creating and hosting website for our group I be happy to help you out.

Excellent!

Looks like you guys have it covered! I'll definitely make the next one. I've been interested in building a Drupal Commerce site lately, too, so I'm pretty happy to see that on the docket for next time.
