This month I think we'll spend some time reviewing the latest trends in Drupal frontend, going over some of the topics covered at DrupalCon Prague / PNWDS / BADCamp, and discussing what we want our focuses to be over the next few months. I also want to pick your brains about a likely conference-y event of our own here next year.
You might want to bring your laptop, and definitely bring topics you want to discuss and lingering questions you've always had about Drupal theming. If you attended one of the above-mentioned Drupal events, maybe come ready to share some of your highlights.
Time: 6pm
Location: TNG, found at 4540 SW Kelly Ave, Portland, OR 97239
The Drupal Frontend Meetup happens every third Thursday of the month. This group is focused on the theming and design aspects of Drupal development. Come nerd out with us over CSS, Javascript, theme functions and other interesting frontend tools.

About the camp idea
I would very much like to see Portland do a camp next year as well. I was an organizer for several years for the NYC camps (more on that later!); we finally got it right (or close to it) by following BADCamp's model (hence NYCCamp). Since I just moved back out here from NYC (I left PDX in '98), I would really love to help organize and volunteer for a local camp. I've learned a few things that I hope would be useful.
One thing I would mention is that unless you work downtown, 6pm is going to be a difficult start-time target to hit. 6:30 might be better?
Cheers,
