Introductions (6:00 - 6:10)
Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit (6:10 - 6:50)
The Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit is six weeks away. Organizers have been hard at work, but it takes us, the community, to make this event shine! If you've never attended a user group meet up before, this one is a great chance to get connected and involved.
Help Migrating Small Site to Acquia Commons
I have a small community website not currently based on Drupal, and am interested in migrating it to Acquia Commons. The data is available as a database export. I can do enough scripting to get the data into whatever format it needs to be in for import purposes, but I don't really know Drupal internals. I want to import the 400 users, their 700 blog posts, and their 840 threaded comments, making sure to preserve the threads.

limited sponsorships available for the Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit
With the summit a few weeks away I'm pleased to say that nearly all of the sponsorships are taken. We do have one or two bronze and a handful of community sponsorships remaining, but they're going fast. As you all know, all money collected goes directly to event costs or to the next summit, and we're 100% volunteer run.
Please send me an email at brian@opensourcery.com if you'd like to snap up the last of the limited sponsorship opportunities available, show your support for this outstanding great community event, and demonstrate your leadership in our regional Drupal community.

Configuration management code sprint at Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit
I will be holding a code sprint for the Configuration Management Initative at the Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit on Sunday, October 16. We will meet up in the Hacker's Lounge and run until we all pass out. While I will be focusing on my initiative, I would be happy to provide guidance for anyone interest in getting involved in the other initiatives as well. See you all there!
Read moreAny CRM Pushers at PNW Drupal Summit?
Are any of you CRM gurus attending the Oct 14 PNW Summit meeting? I'm surprised to not see any proposed sessions related to CRM development/integration.
I'm involved in CRM integration for churches/nonprofits, initially using CiviCRM but want to hear from the voice of experience and see a comparison of strengths/weaknesses of the upcoming solutions (Red Hen, dropCRM, churches CRM, etc) vs established ones like CiviCRM. As a newcomer to the CRM discussion, I'm looking for a bird's eye view of what's happening.
Any chance of a meetup in Portland? Will CiviCRM have a presence?

September Brewpal
As always, no formal agenda... just the opportunity to chat, drink, and work in the company of fellow Drupalers. Don't forget to bring your laptop and use the free Wi-Fi. Because AC power is somewhat limited, it's best to charge up your laptop before you come.
We get going at 5:00 p.m., but if your job doesn't permit you to arrive until 6:00 p.m. or so, that's fine, too.
So here are the details on September's Brewpal:
Date: Tuesday, September 27
Time: 5:00 - 9:00 p.m.
Lucky Lab Beer Hall

October User Group Meeting
Hi all,
I've created this event on seeing that there is no listing for it as yet. Is it cancelled because of the Summit this weekend? I can easily understand that that might be the case, since the same crew that organizes the meetings is no doubt swamped with putting the Summit together (I'm so glad I got a ticket in time!).
