Module Development Talk - D5 or D6?
On Friday, May 9, I am giving an a talk about module development at DrupalCamp Vancouver. The first I gave this talk was a month ago for folks who were going to create a Drupal site the next weekend.

module permissions for query?
Hi, can I add any custom functions to a module or, do they need to be registered in the menu system? I have some lookup routines that work fine for admin but are not called for anonymous users. I tried using the _underscore naming and that didn't allow them. template.php is in a different scope or something, nothing from there... Should they get added as menu_tasks? Thanks for any help

Drupal Camp Vancouver
Now that the Drupal presence at LinuxFest Northwest is done (talks all day today!) Drupal Camp Vancouver is coming up in 2 weeks (Fri/Sat May 9/10). http://www.drupalcampvancouver.org/
I took at look at transportation options.
* The folks I talked to at LinuxFest today seemed to think a car would not be necessary once one got to Vancouver. Seems likely.
* The train station is 1.6 km or less from the Friday and Saturday locations of Drupal Camp
* I think the bus station is the same place (not sure).
Seattle DrupalCamp Location and Dates Determined
Finally...we have a location for the dates we want!

nodeaccess trouble
Has anyone been using the nodeaccess module in production? We've got it setup on our site but I'm having trouble getting grants to take.
I don't see what the pattern is but but after 'granting' a user view & edit permission, there's still no 'View| Edit' link.
I tried clearing the menu and other caches. This happens to be a section of the site that anonymous users are denied 'view.'

Node Import & UID assignment with email address
A new website will help Seattle startups find worksites for rent or lease. Initially, worksite information will be bulk entered with a customized Node Import module. One data import field will be email. A module modification is needed to assign UID with an email lookup. If a UID is not found, a stub user account automatically would be created as node owner. Once a worksite node is imported, an anonymous user, who owns the associated email, could claim ownership with a request for new password.
