Drush - Intermediate or In the wild
Duration : 1 hour
After the intro session, just a few things that we have used Drush to solve, and maybe cover a few more of the commands we didn't talk about before, plus would be great to leave 15-20 mins at the end of the session for people other then us to talk about practical things they have done with the power of Drush.
Agenda really is going to be determined by what we get covered in the intro session, and then having a more indepth convesation about how we use Drush, and a little more hands on showing off of the built in Drush commands.

Theming Content-Rich Sites
As Drupal becomes more popular for media and other content rich sites, the need for fast-loading, highly maintainable and flexible themes becomes paramount. Let's discuss what modules and methods we use to obtain this in our themes. Focus on CSS and other front-end code techniques as well as template.php goodness to keep themes lean. I'll come with my toolbox and hope that you'll do the same!
Session time: one hour.

This session will be a quick hands-on how-to overview of the Rules module http://drupal.org/project/rules
More and more modules are including rules support and in my opinion will soon be as common and relied upon as views is now.

Read moreBuilding Features and Exportables: The Wave of the Drupal Future
Description
Exportables have become all the rage in drupal over the last year or so. They go a long way to solve the long standing issue in drupal that not only is content stored in the database, but much of the configuration of the site as well. That configuration is what makes your site different from the basic install that drupal ships with, and often is the real "work" in creating a drupal site. Because it lives in the database, it makes it hard to:
- Track changes to configurations overtime
- Store backups of just the configuration
