meetup

Hi. Ok, I just joined the group and so this might be a bit forward -- but how about a Nashville Drupal meetup? I moved to Nashville over a year ago and have, as usual, been buried in software projects the whole time. I'd love to get together with other Drupal developers and users. Any interest? Maybe we could try to design / create something and give back to the larger Drupal community. A module? A handbook? Might be fun?

How does one become more involved in the group. I am interested in seeing what resources I can lend to the group and what mutual beneficial aspects can arise. I have been to some meetings and have some ideas for topics and overall management.

Seeing that i am not really part of the "core team" and not really a "hard core dev" I have not really said too much as I don't want to approach anyone the wrong way.

Erik Britt-Webb and I are organizing a meetup for the evening of November 3rd in Newton. The idea is for it to be the first of many meetups where people using Drupal in education and training in the Boston area get together for talks, workshops, coding sessions, etc. Post if you are interested and let us know what you would like to do at the meetups.

I just saw the announcement for DrupalCon in Washington DC. I'm stoked; it's a city I have friends in, and my employer's supportive of my asking to go. Not to mention that it's only a short plane hop away.

I'd be interested in helping put together a meetup, if there's interest.

Thanks to those who responded with some interest in a South Dakota Drupal user group. I'm curious how many would be interested in an actual meetup? I'd like to suggest for the first meetup to be in Sioux Falls, but I'm sure we are all open to other locations in South Dakota.

So anybody have any ideas on location or topic for a first meetup? With numbers likely to be small for a first meetup, this doesn't have to be anything formal. Let's throw some ideas around...

Hi everyone,

Mike and I have been talking and we want to get the meetups going again. We had a great turn out for the first couple but things died out in the summer (as things tend to do).

Hi all --

I'm passing through Calgary this coming weekend and was hoping to connect with folks. I put up an Upcoming entry: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1153433/

This won't be a Drupal-only meetup, but I've called the STIRR Canada folks, and some other people from Banff Venture Forum might be around as well.

Venue suggestions?

Hello,

We just got back into town from Drupal Camp LA 2008. It was awesome and I learned SO much in all the sessions, check out the website to watch videos and read notes from the presenters. There's stuff for Beginners, Developers and Designers.

Looking around here it seems not much has happened in the past couple of months and the ASU crew has left us on our own! If anybody is interested in meeting up let me know. I wouldn't mind organizing!

I am hoping to get us local Drupal ninjas and any interested together for a monthly meeting. We had the recent meeting at 88 Broadway in Urbana but I was yearning for a computer and internet so we could show things off. I am hoping for more of a hacking/show and tell format that is more familiar to a typical user group meeting. I was thinking of something like the last Wednesday of every month say at 6 or 7 in the evening. I am completely open to other days as well. OJC is more than willing to play host to these meetings until other locations are available.
