Read moreDemo's/Talks Wish List
Thought a thread on this may be helpful. Let's brainstorm on what we'd like to see covered in upcoming user groups.
I think it would be great if we are able to touch on various topics and skill levels in our meet ups. The idea here would be to have a working list of topics we'd like to cover.
Here is a broad list of items/topics that would be beneficial to the group:
CCK
Views + Views Plugins
Panels
WYSIWYG + Input Formats
Theming
Exportables
Server Configuration (MySQL, Caching, Apache ... )
Apache
Mapping
Access Control
Organic Groups
Domain Access
Multilingual Sites

If anyone has talks they would like to do, or have something they would like talked about please let us know. I will volunteer to do a talk on memcache(what it is, what it's good for, how to use it in drupal). Geoff, any chance you could do a recap of DrupalCamp Toronto?

CloudCamp Halifax
Hi Everyone,
Just got an email from the organizer of CloudCamp Halifax. It's happening on Nov. 1 at the World Trade and Convention Center starting at 5:30. It's free, so if you are interested in/doing Cloud Computing I'd suggest attending!

Read moreOctober User Group Meeting
Will be at the Chalk Offices at 84 Chain Lake Drive - http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=84+Chain+Lake...
I will be ordering some pizza and picking up some beer based on how many people sign up to attend. I'm thinking $5/person should pay for everything hopefully.
We need to figure out who will do some presentations. So if you have ideas on talks you want to do, or want someone else to do, let us know.

Hi Everyone,
At the last meeting we came to the conclusion that Wednesday night would work better for most. Also discussed setting a specific Wednesday per month to have it so everyone will know. We decided on the 2nd Wednesday of every month.
That being said the 2nd Wednesday of October is the 13th. So, how does October 13th, at 7, at the Chalk Offices work for everyone?
We also discussed throwing in $5 each to get some beer, and possibly pizza. If we can get people to confirm their attendance I can pick up both for the meeting.

Great Resource i found about debugging Drupal.

"This page gives a brief overview of some of the tools you can use to make Drupal development and debugging easier.
It covers the Devel contrib module, the Drupal for Firebug contrib module and Firefox extension, the FirePHP library, and the combination of NetBeans and Xdebug.
This guide has a companion module available at Drupal.org. Post corrections or additions in the issue queue."
