Lonely Planet - Sponsored Meetup at Railway

Posted by sime on October 30, 2007 at 6:01am

Start:

2007-11-13 19:30 - 22:00 Australia/Melbourne

Update! This month's meetup will be sponsored by Lonely Planet - which means I get to talk about my awesome day job. And yes, by sponsored I mean free-as-in-beer! Please spread the word and make this a big meet.

The second Tuesday of November is another of those days where the Railway has a cheap meal and Drupal people mingle. Hope everyone can make it on Tuesday, 13 November 2007 at 6:30 .

Venue: Railway Pub, South Melbourne, 280 Ferrars Street at the corner of Ferrars and Bank Streets. Google map link.

Cool! May I ask how LP is involved with drupal? Out of curiosity... :)

New project, looking at

Posted by sime on October 31, 2007 at 5:27am

New project, looking at existing systems. I don't want to say too much because LP will be speaking for themselves at the meet. Are you going to fly over from NZ? I'll update here afterwards if you can't :)

Please do update afterwards

He he!! No. But it's great to see more and more large companies getting on the drupal train! :) And it's both useful and interesting to learn what why and how such companies use drupal.

Please do update. Thanks in advance.

lyricnz practically promised in IRC he'd be there! should be a great meet, I'm going to ring ahead and make sure they're ready for us. They do have a decent chef.

Oh it's Tuesday, the public

Oh it's Tuesday, Melbourne Cup Day, the public holiday! That changes things. We'll see how it goes, but it's 1.5 hours on the train, in each direction, to get there and back. :/

Hi I will try to make it but will be a bit late as I have a prior engagement.

Thanks for organising the meet up. Regards Sean O'Reilly.

Couple of Newbies Attending...

Hi all, just to let you know, my partner and I will be there. We are new to Drupal and looking at it for a tourism client (and others), so will be very interested in hearing about LP's ideas for utalisation as well as meeting other folks. See you there!

Thanks Lonely Planet!

Hope everyone had an enjoyable time last night. We had a good turn out for the regular 2nd Tuesday meet-up and any time you folks at LP want to buy drinks again, we're there with bells on. Many thanks!
