Topic:
This month we have a great presentation on Drupal's deploy module by visiting Drupal developers (and core maintainers) Dick Ollson and Tim Holt.

Note: Drupal Theming, which was originally planned as the topic for this month, has been postponed until January.

Afterwards?
We're still selecting the new location for our regular post-meeting mixer event. If you have any suggestion, please post in comments!

RSVP
Please remember to register using the signup button on this page. (You have to be logged in.) Note that signing up on meetup.com does not register you for the meeting, you must rsvp on groups.drupal.org. Final list will be given to the venue at 10pm on October 1st (the evening before the meetup)

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

    • Drupal NYC Initiatives
    • Theming: You're doing it wrong, part 3 - Snugug
    • Queue API - kmoll
    • Sign up in comments below to give a lightning talk
  • Main Presentations

    • Deploy - dixon / timholt
    • Migrate - Willy Karam
    • Sign up for a main presentation in comments below
  • Break Out Sessions
    Breakout sessions take place in the "other room" and are more informal, covering any number of topics.

    • 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 2014 discussion - informal, ad hoc discussion about NYC Camp which just took place.
    • Other ad hoc breakout BOFs - Have an interest? Start a BOF at a break out table

Deploy demo

dixon_ and I would love to demo the latest and greatest with the Deploy module. We will talk about how to support more than just core entities and demo lots of things like deploying full revision history, field collections, bean, organic groups and even non-standard stuff like webform.

Please encourage people
