Hi,

Just wondering if we can get active. Is it possible to organize a meet up some time soon and get the group active again? The group has 52 members which makes a good quorum

thanks

The meetup didn't happen. We had not settled on the date, plus only one person confirmed that the proposed venue was convenient.

Can we reopen this meetup, and have people to sign up? This will help in knowing who will be attending the event.

Any suggestions?

October/November Drupal Meetup?

Sounds like a plan. Is it possible we can organize a meetup for early November? You can count me in to join at iHub or wherever.

I think the date is set: 19

I think the date is set: 19 November Drupal 8 will be released and all over the world people are organising Drupal 8 Release parties.

kimarudg, can you ask the iHub if they can host the party?

mutuku, can you create the event here on the Group page? Dont worry if you do not know all the details yet, they will come, no worries.

You can even select 'Drupal 8 Release Party' from the Event Type select box. And I think that will automatically add it to: http://www.drupical.com/

Just quickly read the instructions at the top of this page, to make sure your release party gets noticed: https://groups.drupal.org/drupal-8-release-parties

If you are quick, you'll be listed there before the Ugandans :-)

Will report back

kimarudg's picture

I will ask them and give feedback on this page.

Can we create an even on EventBrite and share it on facebook and twitter? If each of us shared this, I am sure we can get more people to sign up.

I have created the event on

What do you guys & girls want

batje's picture

What do you guys & girls want to do? Is there anyone who can give a presentation about Drupal 8? (There are plenty online, and you still have time to prepare) Or do you just want to have a beer together?

Hi, I got a private message

batje's picture

Hi,

I got a private message asking for some feedback. Let's do that here.

If the locaton is confirmed, then let's confirm it on the event page, too.

I came across this presentation about Drupal 8:

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1GXK1dBSe6_QMhSkNwsgocWynlzdQFrMU...

Is anyone willing to go over those slides a few times and then present them at the event?

Is there anyone else who would like to show anything Drupal related?

Then, when the event page has at least the time & location (and preferably some text about how cool the event will be and that it is a Celebration, we should all be starting to invite people via twitter and the relevant Kenyan mailinglists.

I wont be able to attend the event in person, but all who do, realize you are part of a very very big community of people. No matter where you are.

PS: if you want to record a small promo video for Drupal 8 and be famous, please contact me privately for instructions. That would be much appreciated.
