London Drupal Beer and Chat for July 2011, last stop before Drupalcon!
I'm not quite sure how this happened but it's now mid-summer and DrupalCon London is upon us! Next month there will be no meetup as I'm sure we'll all be busy with holidays and DrupalCon. So this is your last chance to grab an ice cold beer and talk Drupal amongst friends new and old.
If you haven't come along yet, now is your chance to give it ago. We're all a friendly bunch of developers, business devs and general Drupal enthusiasts. Drupal is what brings us together but conversation varies from web startups to geo politics.

We need to make Drupal 8 friendly with tomorrow’s devices as well as today’s.
This sprint will focus on usability testing on a wide range of devices. Bring your phone, tablet, web enabled e-reader or gaming device.

Read moreLondon Drupal SF Fans wanted
I run a number of science fiction fan websites - of course written in Drupal - these are mostly London based. I am seeking one or more other SF fans who can help maintain these sites - provide some technical support to the users, do some graphic design/themeing, and help implement new features using existing modules and generally chat about the best way of doing things in Drupal.
Does this sound like you?
Needless to say these are hobby sites and can't pay. But then I don't think this is a lot of work either - I just want to make sure I am not the single point of failure in the system.

Are there ANY Drupal developers using Simpletest routinely in their development in London
Hi guys,
I've signed up to the Drupal meetup for this coming Monday at the Square Pig, and I'm sure I'll find someone to talk about this there too, but I'd love to know - are there ANY drupal dev shops using Simplest as part of their workflow in the UK?
I've been working with Drupal professionally for about a 12-18 months now, and I've worked with about 10 freelancers on various drupal related projects, and I haven't been able to find anyone who uses testing as part of their workflow.
