NCSD-DUG (North County San Diego Drupal Users Group) is re-merging with the original downtown San Diego group, and thus will no longer be meeting at the NAMM Museum Of Making Music.
June 2013 North County San Diego Drupal Meetup
Alright, folks... this Thursday is our June Drupal meetup ...just a few days from July 1 Drupal 8 code (API) freeze.
Here's what I'd like to share:
- Drupalcon Portland -- our favorite sessions.
- Drupal 8 core -- the state of 8, according to active current [meta] issues and Drupal Change Notices.
- Drupal 8 contrib -- it's time to start porting contrib modules.
Why do you go to Drupal Camps?
I go to Drupal camps because I know that if I learn one new thing or meet one cool person who's willing to share their experiences with me, then it was a successful use of my time. Whatever I learn doesn't even have to be Drupal related, the point is I'm a wiser person for having immersed myself into the community. I organize Drupal camps because I want others to have that same opportunity, and it's rewarding for me to see people get together and share their brilliant ideas and work.
So, why do you go to Drupal Camps (big, small, local, international)?
