Start:
2007-10-18 06:30 - 08:00 US/Mountain We're having our next DBUG meetup in Boulder at pingVision, downtown Boulder, on Thursday Oct 18th.
On the agenda:
- Introductions
- We're going to try something that other groups elsewhere have used to nice result: Everyone shares a tip (e.g., something they learned recently about Drupal that was really cool), and asks a question (e.g., something that is stumping them in their current project). Following will be some discussion about these things. It may take 10 minutes, or it may take the entire session.
- Showcases
- People can show off what they're working on -- a module, a new website, a design, whatever. Greg Hines, John Fiala and Rad Anzulovic will demonstrate the new module they've developed that builds off of jCarousel -- neat stuff!
Come one, come all! Even if you are brand new to Drupal, you are welcome! Please RSVP in a comment if you can. (Not required.) And if you have any agenda suggestions, or something you want to showcase that will require special setup, please let us know.

Will try and be there this time...
My first meet up was a couple/few ago... looking to make this #2. I would be willing to show everyone multi-site school sites I have set up for my district - running on SQL Server 2000. Very basic, but a good proof of concept.
Will be there
My first meeting and I don't have to drive to Denver either.
Good meetings at PingV
PingVision has sponsored the last "Drupal Camp" that was a few months ago ... everyone really enjoyed that one.
I am looking forward to seeing what they come up with this time ... Laura and PingV are such good hosts.
Everyone should make the drive for this one.
See you there ... Paul
I'll try to be there
Well, if I can find the building... :)

I'll be there ... would like to address setting up more advanced meetings centered on Drupal bug smashing sessions: http://groups.drupal.org/node/6537
I'm coming
Planning to make the drive. Echoing Paul, "Laura and PingV are such good hosts. Everyone should make the drive for this one."
Are there good parking reccomendations once we get downtown?
Should be there
By the way, the Google Map link pegs two pingVision locations for me. If you're not familiar with the area, it should be the one on Pine.
Going to try & make it

Last night was a great
Last night was a great meeting. Great job John and Greg on the Node Carousel presentation. Here are some relevant links for some of what was discussed:
Also look for an announcement about a Drupal Camp upcoming in the first week of November. The general topic will be using Drupal's cvs and becoming more active in bug smashing and patch queues so that we can all become more active in the Drupal community.
Agreed.
Last night was a good time. Thanks for the link to the hunchbaque theme, i'll definitely look into it and see if it helps out with any of the markup bloat issues I was talking about.
Just as a future meeting topic idea, with 6 on the horizon it might be cool to spend an evening going over some of the more important changes.
Just throwing that out there.
Also, some additional non-drupal links that there was some discussion on:
