User group meeting

Next Drupal Dundee meetup is on Tuesday 15th April, where we'll discuss lots of the latest Drupal news (including the upcoming Drupal Camp Scotland!!).

If anyone has a topic they'd like to present then feel free to add a comment. If not, I'll do an overview of Symfony2, which is used heavily in the upcoming Drupal 8 release.

We'll meet in the same room as last month, room 2F10 in the Dalhousie Building (http://www.dundee.ac.uk/general/campusguide/virtualtour/dalhousie/). The room is available from 6.30 and we'll kick off at 7. We'll aim to finish before 8.30pm.

  • Welcome & introductions
  • Planet Drupal
  • TBC - Possibly Introduction to Symfony2
  • Lightning Talks
  • Adjourn to Duke's Corner (http://www.dukescorner.co.uk/) for beer, food and chat

Lightning talks are short 2-4 min presentations and can be anything Drupal or web related - a demo of site you've built, a module you've used in a project, a YML primer or an explanation of of the Symfony routing system (bravo if you can squeeze that last one into a 4 min talk :-) ).

All are welcome - especially those who are new to Drupal or want to find out anything about getting started. As with Drupal, the event is free... just please signup so we know who's coming.

Sorry for the late sign up. I wasn't really sure what I was going to be up to until today.

I'll be along and can do a little lightning talk about my dev setup with wildcard domain names.

See you all in the pub later.

Glad you can make it, Martin.

Sorry can't make it tonight or other Tuesdays for a while as I have planning meetings with Dundee MakerSpace on Tuesdays.

Sounds like a cool project!

Sounds like a cool project! Pity you can't make the meetups, but good luck with the Hack Lab.

Good to see everyone again last night. Here's the links to the slides from the meetup:

Drupal news: https://speakerdeck.com/littledynamo/latest-drupal-news-april-2014

Symfony Intro: https://speakerdeck.com/littledynamo/step-into-symfony-2

I've also hunted out the article that explains how to build Drupal 7 modules using Drupal 8 autoload techniques - http://www.previousnext.com.au/blog/drupal-8-now-psr-0-code-drupal-7

If anyone has a topic they would like to share for next month's talk then feel free to add a comment.

Cheers everyone,

John
