DrupalCampLA

Hey Campers!

Anyone looking to carpool for DCLA?

Let us be Earth conscious if possible this weekend.

Please list your location, if you can give a ride or need a ride....

See you at camp!

It's wonderful to have many different topics at a camp, but it's also most helpful to have a number of sessions on the same topic, viewing it from different perspectives. DrupalCampLA was fantastic because it offered a number of sessions on SASS/Compass, each complementing the other.

I'm now working through learning and applying SASS/Compass, and what's so amazing to me, as I come across a topic, I can say, oh, Zakiya demoed this, and Chris mentioned this, and Rain emphasized this...

The Camp gave me more than enough bits to be able to put this together myself.

Last weekend at DrupalCampLA we had a great turnout of women using Drupal, including a number of technical presentations led by women! Out of 66 sessions, 13 were presented by women (this includes Brenda Boggs' "The Doctor Is In" shift at the Drupalchix table and events such as that). 7 of those sessions were technical in nature, and while many of them were aimed at those new to Drupal, they were valuable topics such as Views, Upgrading from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6, and Site Migration.

Curious. I was a community sponsor last year.

Thanks,
