I'd like to float an idea for the next meeting. Would anybody be interested in trying a "round-table discussion" on a specific issue? (Yes, I have a topic in mind - Theming Forms - but I'm sure there are lots of discussion-worthy topics sitting out there.)

I'd love to sit in on this discussion if it takes place. I haven't been to the Columbia meeting yet... Is there an Event created for the next one? Who are the organizers of this meeting? I would be interested in helping if it is needed/desired. :D

I like the idea of the round-table discussion, but have concerns that it might result in many topics going over peoples heads. We really want this to be a teaching group rather than just a discussion group. If we could pair the topics with examples and code samples, then it'd still fulfill the goal of teaching, while allowing others to go home and learn more.
Currently, the meetup is hosted at PMG courtesy of Sean Powell. I generally coordinate the meeting agenda (speakers, topics, etc) but as of now that usually only involves one to two speakers. There is not an event listed for the meetup yet, but the meetup is held on the last Wednesday of every month. Once I confirm, I will post the next event.

Theming Forms
Here's a really good article about working with forms:

Theming forms
Aaron, thanks for the reference. (I have run across it before)
I guess the main question I'm having is that I've seen three distinct ways to theme forms being generated by CCK. What I'd like to explore as a group is how you would decide which to use, and perhaps a little about the pros & cons of each one.
Meeting date this month?
Can someone please confirm which Wednesday the meeting will be this month? At the last meeting, I thought I heard Sean say that it's the 4th Wednesday of the month, but now I see Ron's comment that it's the last Wednesday.
So are we planning on meeting the 23rd or the 30th? (If it's the 23rd, I'll be there. If it's the 30th, I won't be able to make it.)
Last wednesday/Fourth Wednesday
UPDATE: It actually is the fourth Wednesday. I will set the event in the next few minutes.
Fourth Wednesday
Ken and all - Just so it is clear, there is a meeting this wednesday.
I would definitely be interested in talking about theming forms (it's actually something I do all the time - at least webforms).
