Join us on Monday, May 19th @ 7pm, for a Drupal study group:
2920 W. Olive Avenue, Suite 110
Burbank, CA 91505
818 562 7004
(Parking is on the street.)
Venue provided by ahimsauzi @ Medium Digital Studio.
Pizza provided by The Cherry Hill Company.
The format of this meetup is very casual (and round-table), so bring whatever Drupal-related projects you are currently working through, and (if you'd like) some food or beverage to share.
We'll roughly break the meetup up into two parts:
FIRST HOUR
We will discuss challenges that we are facing in our real projects, and help each other find solutions. Bring whatever (Drupal-related) questions or challenges you have! This covers a broad range from wire-framing/UI challenges to difficulty getting a migration script to work to ... [insert your specific idea here].
SECOND HOUR
We are working together to build a Drupal 8 site, giving us the opportunity to learn from each other's working styles and test the boundaries of Drupal 8 without the restrictions of working on a client site. The project is going to focus on the challenges of a media-centric responsive site. It will morph as we come up with ideas.
Anyone can join the project and study group at any time!
On May 19th, we will:
- Have those who are fully set up with all the pieces of the project start working on the site we are building
- Have breakout groups as needed for those who aren't yet set up to get all the necessary tools and pieces on their system, including local development environment, drush, git, etc.
- Have breakout groups as needed for those who would like to learn the basics of drush and git
We have a github organization for the project: pizzandrupal.

RECURRING MEETING
This meeting is scheduled for the third Monday of every month.
Comments
Monday meetup
I would LIKE to come to the meetup, if nothing else interferes. I am on the westside, and a lot of things can happen that prevent me from getting downtown or out to Burbank. I think that Stew is trying to set up a WORKING drupal meetup like this on the west side.
Worth it
Try the best you can to make it on Mon night. It is definitely one of the more worthwhile Drupal meetups around, for the amount of stuff you learn from it.
Don't need to count me into
Don't need to count me into pizza order as I'm not a fan. If you're ordering other stuff I'll probably partake.
I have a question (don't want to forget it later) about Drupal 6 search indexing. Thanks.
Drush path
What is the path to drush supposed to be in D7? Is it supposed to be under /docroot/core in D8?
