Agenda?

  • LIGHTNING ROUNDS
    Have a topic you can present in 5 minutes (with 5 more minutes for questions)? The basic idea is there are patterns for developing sites the "drupal" way ("what would drupal do? etc."). Tell us a quick 5 minute recipe for how to put the Drupal "bricks" together. Theming techniques or other things may also be appropriate. Propose it below in comments. Make sure you mention it is for the "lightning round" otherwise it might get confused with a longer presentation. Lightning rounds do not have to be related to this month's topic

    • Sign up in comments below to give a lightning talk
  • Main Presentations
    Have a topic that needs more then 5 minutes, we have slots of 20-30 minute talks. The basic idea is there are broader subjects or more detailed discussions this is the type of talk you would want to signup for, please mention 20 min talk when posting your talk description and the audience you expect to speak to. 20-30 min talks do not have to be related to this month's topic.

    • Sign up for 20 minute talk in comments below

    • New 2 Drupal BOF table - New to Drupal? Bring your questions and problems for expert help. If you are new to Drupal and the talks don't apply to you some of us will take a group and talk with you about your issues.
    • NYC Camp sunset discussion - informal, ad hoc discussion about NYC Camp which just took place.

I could do a 5 min lightning talk on creating Responsive SVG logos—using SVG and Media Queries. I was planning on doing this last month but had to cancel!

Drupal Flu

You're not allowed to get the Drupal Flu unless you actually go to Drupalcon! ;-)

Migrating to 8

jrockowitz's picture

I would like to do a short lightning talk presentation about a recipe I am working on for migrating from a Drupal 6 (or 7) site to Drupal 8, while D8 is still under development.

Since, I am just going to be talking about a concept and have nothing to demo, 5 minutes for my presentation and 5 minutes for questions should be fine.

Post Meetup Mixer Suggestioin

I suggest the post meetup mixer be at The Iron Bar & Grill which just opened on the corner of 45th & 8th Ave. I built their site and know the owners and managers very well. www.ironbarnyc.com

The place is big and open with a large lounge area. I should let them know we are coming but either way they can handle it.

Venue?

Thanks to the generosity and agility of CPX Interactive, our October meeting will be hosted in their fantastic space near Times Square. (This is the same place we held organizing meetings for the recent camp, and is a really great space.)
