DC

The School Without Walls Senior High School's website, http://swwhs.org/ has been deployed using drupal and acquia marina as the theme.

Hallo,

es besteht die Möglichkeit direkt im Unperfekthaus zu wohnen. Dort gibt es 3-Bett- und 2-Bettzimmer. Die Kosten belaufen sich auf ca. 50 Euro pro Person und Bett für die Nacht. Es können zusätzlich noch Leute mit Schlafsack mit in den Zimmern unterkommen, wodurch sich die Kosten entsprechend reduzieren würden.

Wer wäre an einem Bett interessiert? Wer würde einen günstigeren Schlafsackplatz haben wollen?

Hi folks,

I put a feeler out on a couple of listserves earlier today about starting a DC CiviCRM user group and got a good response. I went ahead and started a Meetup and am planning the first Meetup for April 22nd at 6:30pm at the Black Squirrel in Adams Morgan.

You can sign up for the Meetup group at: http://www.meetup.com/dc-civicrm-meetup/

I've worked up a skeleton of a session about building training programs for Drupalcon in DC. That's for training new users on a website, training new staff for a development handoff, training new developers on your staff, even for writing good training docs.

Those of you with a training persuasion, check it out and give me your feedback - and vote on it - if you are so inclined. Address is: http://dc2009.drupalcon.org/session/training-boosting-our-raw-capacity-p...

I'd like to share some quick thoughts on how Drupal Data could be described in RDF. The attached schema represents the mappings between the current Drupal data structure and the proposed RDF Schema, reusing existing ontologies such as Dublin Core, FOAF, SIOC and SKOS.

The green circles represent the Drupal objects (node, revision, user, role, term), with their equivalent RDF class. The rectangles are the values used in Drupal. It's important to differentiate a class from its actual instances (resources) which are each defined by a unique URI, see the examples below. This schema is meant to be simple, incomplete, and to show the main core features.
Comment and Node are 2 different elements in Drupal, they can be combined in the same Class with the recursive property sioc:has_reply (Comment as Node). Node and Revision objects are separate here as they are in the Drupal Data structure, but they could fundamentally be merged as well.

I presented SIOC at DrupalCon Barcelona, and showed how it can be used to describe online communities. The SIOC sioc:Item class which I used here as equivalent of a Node is a broad Class with many sub-types: AddressBook, AnnotationSet, AudioChannel, BookmarkFolder, MailingList, MessageBoard, BlogPost, BoardPost, WikiArticle... See the SIOC Types Module for more details.

Speakers include:

• Rasmus Lerdorf
  Rasmus Lerdorf is known for having gotten the PHP project off the
  ground in 1995, the mod_info Apache module and he can be blamed for the
  ANSI92 SQL-defying LIMIT clause in mSQL 1.x which has now, at least
  conceptually, crept into both MySQL and PostgreSQL. Prior to joining
  Yahoo! as an infrastructure engineer in 2002, he was at a string of
  companies including Linuxcare, IBM, and Bell Canada working on Internet
  technologies.
