Ignite Hampton Roads
Hi everyone. Just a heads up, later this month there will be an event at the Nauticus called Ignite Hampton Roads. It takes a similar model to a TED talk but at an accelerated pace and all participants are from the HRO area. I'll be out of town so I can't make it, but I wanted to let you know.
Should be a great event.

Hi everyone,
Just a reminder that the next Richmond Drupal meeting is scheduled for this coming Wednesday - 4/18 at 6pm at WCVE (23 Sesame Street, 23235).
Haven't heard from anyone who has something to present - I'll plan on giving a brief presentation on basic security when developing Drupal modules (helpful for newer devs, or those who manage/hire them), and if I have time a quick recipe for Ajax node submission in D7.
Then we'll open up the floor for discussion or presentations on what you've been working on since our last meeting.

Read moreNext Richmond Drupal Meetup - Wednesday, November 16th
We'll host the next meeting at WCVE on 11/16 at 6pm - 23 Sesame Street, Richmond VA 23235.
As we mentioned last time, we are going to try spreading these out to every two months. Wanted to give everyone ample notice to save the date on their calendar.
I have a few things I would be happy to present on, but it would also be nice to hear from others, so if you have something you would be willing to present please let us know in a separate post.
If no one else has something to present, I can do either:
* SSL & Drupal 7
* Choosing Drupal 7 to build a web application prototype - would I do it again?
Whichever people might be more interested in.
Please RSVP before 11/14 if possible.
Thanks!
