I think this Saturday (18th) is closest to the 20th. But we could do a week from Saturday on the 25th.
Thoughts?
As for what happens, I would love to see us take turns doing some presentations on basic Drupal things. I'd love to have someone do a presentation on Views. I feel like I use Views pretty well but I don't really use arguments or relationships. I'd love to have someone give us a nice overview of that.
And a question for everyone: What is the best way to allow some customization of themes for blogs within a drupal site? I could do that easily using the subsites module, but is there an easy way to give a user some control over the look of their blog. Like changing out a banner graphic. Skinr and Fusion based themes?
I'll offer what I can. I've been doing a lot of work over the last year with the Feed API modules. That module has been stopped and is now becoming Feed, but they are basically the same thing. I'd be happy to share what I've learned. In particular, I've discovered that there is something unique that Google does with its news feeds that makes incorporating them into a Google site very easy.

I'm good with this week
If we are having trouble finding a place to meet, perhaps we should consider doing so through Skype or Google chat. I've no problem with doing that. In fact, it would save on gas and room rental costs. I'm sure that we all have broadband access.
I can make this month's meeting, but I'll be out of pocket next month. So picking a date would be helpful. This Saturday would be easier to make than next, for me.

Skype or Chat
Skype or Chat would be amazing!
We should be having a meeting
We should be having a meeting on Saturday the 18th at the Downtown Library. I'm trying to get confirmation that we do in fact have a room.
I will be doing a views demo including some advanced topics like overriding the query that views uses.

We can definitely use the NOWCastSA.com 6th floor room at the Central Library. It is cozy, but ...
I will pursue the SAPL 3rd floor room in the ayem. The "reservations dude has been on vacation (which probably means it is quite available!)

I seriously forgot to schedule time for bio breaks this week. It's been a beach.

Another possible subject...
With Charlotte there maybe we could also discuss:
Drupal Gardens sites.
Limitations.
practical uses.
How about putting them to use right now? What dangers do we face with drupal 7? Modules not yet available, etc.
Time?
Do we have a time for the meeting at the library?
