February Portland Drupal User Group
It's that time of year again: Lightning Talks! This month we'll have an hour of 5-10 minute demos and presentations on whatever you want. Got some workflow to show off? MAKE TALK. Got some crazy use case that you solved in a non-trivial way? MAKE TALK.
Anyways the floor is open to you, our faithful #pdxdug regulars and newcomers alike to talk anything Drupal or related. If you'd like to be a for-sure presenter, please post in the comments below.

Portland sprint during the Global Sprint Weekend Jan. 25-26?
The current wiki page for the sprint has zero on the west coast (and in fact nothing in the U.S. west of Minneapolis).
Could we organize something for Portland?
I'm a freelancer with no office space, so I realize I'm suggesting other shops put out some resources here :) But I think it would be great to have Portland participating in this. And if we get a location figured out, we can announce it during all the January meetups.
Thoughts?

We'll meet at Pints (NW 5th Ave between Flanders and Glisan. map) because I've heard from numerous people that they make really good beer and Drupal Happy Hour is a good time to verify this.

Also, pythons, like the internet are just a series of tubes… organic, rodent constricting and eating tubes.
