feb meetup
hi everyone, sorry for not posting anything sooner. we were discussing a change of venue but it's a bit late now.
does everyone fancy going to the elephant again? we can talk about when/if to try another place while we are there.
if anyone new is reading this. although the start time is set to 6pm, it's totally informal (we don't even have a screen) so feel free to drop in later if you can't make it for 6, we're normally there for a few hours
updated to this year :-D
Read morefirst Bristol Drupal meetup of 2012!
After work next Wednesday (11th Jan) at the Elephant. I think this might clash with something else for the people in Wales but we can switch back to our first Wednesday of the month rule for the rest of the year.

I'm twiddling my thumbs waiting for our American office to wake up - so I thought I'd write yet another post on here about the Bristol meetups.
Thanks everyone for coming yesterday, great to see you all. I think we had 12 or 13 people turn up, and it's nice we're regularly seeing 10+
I won't put an Event up for next year yet. But I don't think we'll get a good turn out if we stick to the first Wednesday rule, as that's the second day back to work. Shall we push it back a week? How would that work for everyone?

It was pretty quiet on my previous thread about what presentations everyone would like to see at the xmas meetup.
Pipe up on this thread if you'd like to see anything. I was keen on seeing Rupert's Commerce one and am still prepared to do something on panels if you're interested (in fact, I'm not sure if you are around, or reading this Marcus - but aren't you the super duper panels expert?)

we had another good meet up at the elephant yesterday evening. nice to see everyone
Personally, I learnt that responsive design doesn't have to cause the performance issues I've been having. And Commerce is complete enough to use on our next site requiring a payment solution. I should apologise for a JavaScript/Node.JS outburst to the chap from the Uni (sorry, I've got a blank on your name at the moment) who left shortly after talking to me - related? :o)

Hello everyone, nice to meet you all!
I'm helping out a new startup who want to build a web app, and we'll need a couple of custom modules to provide some of the functionality.
The first one involves lots of lovely SQL queries and data stuff (with a nod to scaleability), and the second involves facebook integration.
If you have experience with either (or both!) of these, or would like a bit more info then get in touch - harry@creation-marketing.co.uk
Thanks,
Harry

Read moreGreetings from Glastonbury
Hi all,
I have recently moved to Glastonbury and looking forward to getting to know other Druplers in the area. I've only recently started using it myself, having installed it onto my personal site, before I create any other sites with it. I'm using D7. I'm still finding my feet with it all, e.g. I'm still having problems using OG. I do like the idea of Drupal for my personal site, for I am a very ecclectic individual and its functionality helps with that.
When's the next meet up? If there is one! I look forward to possibly coming along, if I can.
I wish you well.
Tor...
A big thanks to all for 19th April
Reposting my comment from http://groups.drupal.org/node/141239 to get a discussion going...
A big thanks to all for coming along on the 19th April - was good to see some familiar faces and meet some new people in the local Drupal community. Hopefully we can get 30 people together regularly.
Some of the key things people felt they could get out of (or would like for) regular sessions were:
- Group problem solving/open forum QA
- Learning Drupal 7
- Performance/optimisation advice
- Freelancer networking/collaboration opportunities
- Socialising
- A mixture of social/formal
The first Bristol and the West Drupal User Group meetup
The first of hopefully many regular meetups for Drupal users in and around Bristol.
SiftGroups will be hosting with plans to kick off around 6pm and run until around 9pm, carrying on in the pub if necessary. We'll sort out some food options and beer once we know numbers.
For the first session we'll keep it fairly loose, intros and stuff and try to get idea of what we can get out of regular meetups. Knowledge sharing, regular presentations/speakers, plans for DrupalCon London etc.

Hi guys,
We are working on creating an image gallery with Flash and Flex/ActionScript which will be open source and placed on Drupal.org in the modules section, and are currently in the code review phase. We wanted a bit of feedback from the community before posting this on the Drupal site, so we are having a 30 minute e-seminar to present the module and gather some ideas. If you would like to join and help make this better, please register at this address:

The registration is just for us to estimate the size of the Connect room needed.
