Format for Meetups

2 weeks ago, my work sent me down to Washington to attend a week long workshop on module development put on by lullabot. it was pretty awesome, and I learned a ton of stuff. While I was down there, I was able to attend the meetup for the DC area, and got to network with some of the lullabot's and some of the guys from development seed. They have a pretty sweet format for how they run the meetups.

June Meetup

Hey Everyone,

Figured I would start this thread sooner rather then later so we all have lots of time to plan!

How's interested in a June meetup?

Also, what are everyone's thoughts on having this one at Adam's office(assuming that offers still open ;-)) so we can have a beer or two?

Next Meetup

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to get discussion going around getting a date set for the next meetup. If the CH guys are able to host again that would be great. the venue was kick ass.

anyways, this is more of just an attempt to get dicussion going. maybe we could setup a poll to figure out a date that would be convenient for everyone.

Cheers.

Ryan

Using the Chronicle Herald building for next meet-up?

hi all,

had to register a new username (old one was pescobar) to finally login here after the SSO merge

was wondering what the group thought of hosting the next meet-up at the Chronicle Herald in one of the conference rooms?

i started working at the Herald last sept. as a drupal dev and they've really bought into the platform

there is at least one other group member also employed here (username deepr) and he and i started talking about the possibility of hosting meet-ups here in a conference room

i then approached my boss about it and she thought it was a great idea

Next Meetup

So i figured i would get the discussion going for the next meetup.

From my perspective, it would be great to lock down a few items such as location, frequency, and what do we want to do at meetups.

May we could aim for the first week of october and see what interest is generated.

Use of Drupal in NS

So, i've been working on a proof of concept for use of Drupal at Capital Health. We have a gigantic site to build, and Drupal would be a perfect fit.

Traditionally, at Capital Health we're a Microsoft Shop with most of our applications being of the .NET/SQL Server flavour with a sprinkle of Oracle/Java in some cases. Many who come from this area, think I'm crazy for wanting to use LAMP + Drupal for our web presence or that anything open source in general is sub par. As we all know, that is a crock but regardless, it is someting barrier i have to overcome.

Halifax PHP Users Group

Hi Everyone,

I am a PHP developer local to Halifax but have not used Drupal much so I have started a local general PHP users group here in Halifax. Since you all do Drupal I thought you might be interested in a general PHP users group to share some of the PHP knowledge outside of Drupal.

Please feel free to sign up, introduce yourself and join in!

http://groups.google.com/group/halifax-ns-php-developers-group

Cheers,

Trevor

Fun times with Drupal in Halifax?

Well, we just had our second meeting. There were only two of us present (Ryan and I) but this is great news as Ryan wasn't there for the first meeting.
Then, to follow - I was @ Carlito's on Quinpool the other morning and ran in to another Drupal dev I've been meaning to track down for a little bit (will be inviting him in to the group).

Some Free Video's from Do It With Drupal

http://www.doitwithdrupal.com/free-videos

Drupal in place of basecamp is pretty exciting. Going to see if i can take a stab at it within the next week or so. $95 for the whole series seems quite reasonable.

April Fools Night Gathering?

Start: 
2009-04-01 19:00 - 21:00 UTC
Organizers: 
Event type: 
User group meeting

Hi folks,

I wanted to put the word out there about another meeting. This time, I think we had a couple of discussions people wanted to have.

1: Views Arguments.
2: Location/Gmap module


As some of you know, I had the super fortunate opportunity of attending Drupalcon DC this year. I would happily share some of the discussions I had with people. There were definitely some which stood out as I was admittedly largely hunting for direction in many sessions.

Wednesday Feb 18 - First NS Drupal Meetup

Start: 
2009-02-18 19:00 - 20:30 UTC
Organizers: 
Event type: 
User group meeting

Hello Local Drupallers,

There's been some discussion around the group around having a meet up. I'm proposing we give it a shot.

For the first night, I think we'll just sit and chat about who is doing what and how we're using Drupal.

I invite anyone in the group to offer up or suggest a short technical presentation.

Since I don't really know what level we're all playing @, I'd rather make it an open forum for planning.

Please post up your comments and RSVP if you're able to.

Location:
2326 Joseph Howe Drive.
Halifax, NS
(902)431-WEBS

Nova Scotia Meetup

I think we may have a large enough membership now to support group meetings. 2009 may just be the year of Drupal NS! Been chatting with Nimzie about it and we are wondering...Do you think an informal coffee shop meet is the way to go for the first one, or would you like something more formal (presentations/structured discussion topics etc)? Should it be held in Halifax or elsewhere? Are you interested at all? What do you think?
