Read moreMeeting Formats
We should try to keep the running time of meetings to under an hour. If after someone does a talk or demo, and you want to discuss more but time doesn't permit, that can easily be done after the meeting. We don't want to get into a situation where the meetings run too long or they're not on point.
We're about 2 weeks out from our first meeting back, so we should try to come to some sort of a consensus as to what we'd like to chat about.
I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are about picking a general theme or topic, and most of the chats would revolve around that topic for a night.

Meeting Location
From the discussions there are three meeting locations:
1) Chalk (Bayers Lake)
- Boardroom gets crowded with 8 people
- Lots of parking
2) Somewhere on Quinpool Road
- Boardroom size unknown
3) Teamspace (Bedford Highway, near The Chicken Burger)
- Large boardroom fits 20+ easily
- Lots of parking
Not sure if there are any new offers or if the one on Quinpool Road can provide more details.
Read moreWhat day works best for the next meetup (around 6pm-8pm)?
Lets get meetings going again
Hey Everyone,
I'm back at Chalk these days and into the world of Drupal a bit, so am hoping we can get regular meetings back on the go.
We can use the Chalk office as a meeting place as it seemed to work well before.
How does the first week of September look for everyone? Any night that works better? Once we've nailed down a date we'll talk about topics.

Looking to connect with local Drupalers...
Hi Group,
Very glad to stumble upon this group! I run a small marketing firm out of Halifax, and we are looking to be more active in building Drupal-based sites for our small business clients. Is this group very active? Are there members interested in Drupal work? We don't have steady work.. but the whole 'Drupal World' is very new to us, so really looking to connect with some talented and experienced Drupal gurus.
