Teaming up with BarCampAustin at SXSWi
Intro to BarCampAustin
Imagine a full day of SXSWi devoted to hanging out with like-minded people at a bar. That's BarCamp, and the organizer, Whurley, wants Drupal to make a splash. According to Whurley, BarCampAustin will be "more ad hoc than we can possibly stand" and "100% nuts." (Oh, and there will be fully customizable T-shirts screen-printed on demand.) EXCELLENT!

Austin Drupal User Group Monthly Meetup - February 7, 2007, 7-10 pm, Dog and Duck Pub, 406 West 17th St
Who
Calling all Austin Drupalers!
What
Austin Drupal User Group Monthly Meetup!
When
Wednesday, February 7th. 7-10 pm. As of Feb 1 '07, the poll to vote on your preferred day and time for the monthly Drupal meetup resulted in 21 total votes. Majority wins, so Wednesday, 7-10 pm it is.
Where
I received a few suggestions and am going with Dog and Duck for our February 7 meetup. I called them and was told they do allow free wireless Internet access but that folks need to BRING A CHARGED BATTERY FOR YOUR LAPTOP as they only have one spot to plug in an electrical cord. If your battery is low when you arrive at Dog and Duck, you and your laptop may be out of luck.
If you have a place in mind for our next meetup, please add your comment and include the venue name, address, phone number, and a URL, if available. Office/university space that works for about a dozen (12) folks is good as well, but we'll need an address, your cell phone number, and whether or not any special access is required.
Why
The Austin DUG wants YOUR participation and your fellow Drupalers want to meet you, make new friends/professional contacts, and learn about how you're using Drupal.
Sign Up
Sign up by adding your "Yes, I'll be there" comment. It helps to know how many folks will be attending.

Austin Drupal Meetup - Jan. 10th at Gingerman
Nick Lewis and I were talking in #drupal and came to an agreement that we should revive the Austin Drupal meetup idea. We'll be meeting on Wednesday, January 10th at 7pm at Gingerman (downtown on 4th street). They have free wireless internet so bring your laptop if you like.
Hopefully by that time there might even be a Drupal 5.0 release! Also I believe there is another League of Technical Voters Codeathon planned for February 3rd (only 24 hours this time).

Drupal Training in Texas
I am in College Station, TX and am looking for low-level* Drupal training.
Is there anything nearby?
Would anyone care to share his/her experiences with any professional training he's received?
*or high-level, depending on what your use of the term. I'm referring to more than just installation-- advanced theming and api are a must.
Read moreWhere should the 1st Meetup take place for Drupal users of Austin and Central Texas?
NOTE: Please take the poll to determine when in late July 2006 we should have our first Austin DUG.
It would be great if we could get at least 5 Central Texas Drupal users together in Austin for our 1st meeting!
What is a DUG? Drupal User Group! And it can be whatever we make it. Come out for some beers, coffee, tea, or food (depending on where we decide to meet) and let's talk about Drupal, co-coding, the marketplace, show off modules and websites, etc. I'm figuring that after work hours probably works best. For this first meeting of the Austin DUG, we can keep it informal and set an agenda a few days in advance here on groups.drupal.org.

Hi,
I'm a Drupal user and would enjoy occasionally meeting to talk about Drupal and learn more about it. I'm currently in the process of launching my company's web site which will be, of course, powered by Drupal. But I have a ways to go and since I'm a Drupal user and not a developer, I'll be relying heavily on Robert Douglass' book and drupal.org forums to learn my way around.
With regard to the Austin Drupal Group, I can help some with the planning and execution of events. I'm not a developer, just a Drupal user, but I can help with setting up the logistics for local events such as asking folks to provide a location, etc. I hope we can find some other Drupal users/developers in the Austin area to get things going!
