Get Your Drupal Camp Session Ready - We Want to Hear from You
Hi Everyone,
It's that time of year when we all get into full swing to advertise our yearly gathering of all the best that Drupal Ireland has to offer.
We don't have a date finalised, but April 7th and 8th is looking likely. The location will be Dublin, city center-based.
This year we want to bring the camp back to its roots a little. This means talks to satisfy developers and enthusiasts, rather than showcases of websites built to impress clients and potential clients.

Minutes from Drupal Ireland Committee Meeting in December
Hi all.
The committee had our monthly meeting today. This is what we discussed:
-1-
Social Media
We talked about general usage. Taking for example some tweets sent by Drupal Ireland before DrupalCon (for example tweets about companies having a booth) and discussed if that could be considered as promotion of individual companies rather than Drupal in general. Tweeting will always be done according to the guidelines approved last year.
We felt some companies where having more presence than others because they have more active blogs, with other companies being less active.
