I love this group and am very interested in helping out to spread the word that Drupal might be more then a system spitting out webpages or even rss ;-) I propossed a session on DrupalCon Amsterdam for this. If it gets selected I welcome your help with examples and ideas. If you have any questions wrt the sessions, please comment on https://amsterdam2014.drupal.org/session/drupal-things

Hello,

I have a ticket for DrupalCon Austin 2014, but I will not attend. I bought it at $400 (early-bird price) and I'd be happy to sell it at that same price. Current tickets are $550, so you would be saving quite a bit. More info here: https://austin2014.drupal.org/tickets

Let me know if you're interested: https://drupal.org/user/144520/contact

Thanks!

I have a ticket for DrupalCon Austin 2014, but unfortunately my plans have changed and I will no longer be able to attend. Tickets are non-refundable, but they can be transferred to another person (see http://austin2014.drupal.org/tickets).

I purchased the ticket at the early-bird pricing ($400), and I would be happy to just break even. Ticket prices are currently $550, and they will be $600 on-site, so this is a great deal no matter what.

Please contact me if you are interested! http://drupal.org/user/581414/contact

I am excited to be the track chair for site building at DrupalSouth in Wellington next year and it's time to get your session proposals in!

Site building is the glue that pieces together a Drupal site and everyone has their favourite tools, tips and techniques for achieving requirements. I am also considering sessions around tools and techniques for content editors in this track and am up for hearing some wild ideas from new voices, so don't be afraid to submit a session idea no matter who you are or how new you may be to Drupal.

On Tuesday, 24th of September we had a birds-of-a-feather session about Solr in Drupal 8 and there was an attendance of around 8-10 people. Also all the module maintainers were present in this meeting so it was perfect to have a productive meeting, which it also was.

We discussed the following topics

Changes in Drupal 8 core to the search module in core.
Possibilities to have a generic connector for Solr.
Query Class
Document Class
Indexing logic
Schema files
Views query plugin
Indexing logic and why queue is not a good option for indexing items to your search
