Hi everyone,
I have been in contact with buddy7, the owner of this group. He currently lives out of the country and is not able to support this group (if I read his email correctly).
I am proposing to be able to administrate this group as a co-owner so that we can grow the group, have fun, and share knowledge.
In 2006 buddy7 started this group. I respect that, so please reply regarding your ideas regarding this proposed change.
Thanks,
Brian.
Read moreRoanoke Virgina Drupal Users Group?
Hi everyone,
I would like to see this group come alive again. I work for a large employer in the Roanoke region that has many Drupal properties, some Enterprise class, some brochure to medium size sites.
I would like to see us come together, as a local Drupal community, to share and learn from each other! We can discuss everything from site building, themes and module development. I think we have enough expertise to at least have a great discussion, and learn much from each other in the process. I think a brain share would be a fantastic day.
Are you interested? Please respond.

The team at php[architect] (who run the longest running technical journal dedicated to the PHP programming language) are excited to invite you to attend our newest conference: php[world] - Happening this November 10-14th in Washington, D.C.
We've successfully run many conferences over the last 12 years, our main one being php[tek] in Chicago each May. But we've seen how PHP has been evolving over the years, and php[tek] is really focused on the core/bespoke PHP crowd.

New To the group!
Hello RDUG!
I am a new member to this group, have been using drupal for about 5 years, and ave recently been hired at Acquia... So I think that sort of makes me a Drupal Junkie / Geek.
I am wondering if there is a schedule, or if you guys actually hold meetings, etc. I would like to get together with you guys, share and corroborate, and otherwise build relationships with other Drupal Users in the roanoke / Christiansburg / Blacksburg / Radford areas, as I am geographically central to all of these.
Thanks!
Jeffrey Dowd | Technical Account Manager | Acquia

Need some folks with Blackbaud NetCommunity experience
Any drupal developers out there with Blackbaud NetCommunity (BBNC) experience. BBNC is not a very difficult platform to work with, but there is a learning curve. I'd like to find some developers we can continue to rely on that are past that learning curve.
Thanks

I've seen multiple threads on a possible meet up in the Roanoke/Southwest VA area and I think instead of talking about it, I'm going to just see what kind of attention I can get by setting a date and a place.

Nothing fancy. We will just take a walk through and consider the ramifications of the new release. Hosted by geeks but everyone will be treated gently.
Coffee, cola and hot dogs. If you want something fancier bring it along but bring enough to share.
