Bring some food or a beverage to share (alcoholic or non). And arrive at Amazon as normal. We'll stay there a little bit later than usual, and we will modify the normal agenda to accommodate more conviviality!

Drupal Mentorship
At PNWDS, in a discussion on the Drupal community, the idea of mentoring received a unanimous "Mmm hmm!" At the last Drupal meetup, I saw a lot of new Druplers looking for help in getting started. I recently attended a Startup Weekend event, and one of the projects that survived is 1001mentors.com, where mentors and mentees can find each other. I reached out to the founders about Drupal's needs, and they've added a CMS section for us.

Any 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?
