Pluralism Template Ported to Drupal 6 Theme
After walkah's presentation on Drupal 6 Themeing, I ported and contributed a theme to drupal.org. Some really great information that inspired me to contribute a new theme. I did a relatively detailed write up in the showcase forums.
Thanks James, for the great presentation and answering the question we all had.

Join us for our monthly meetup where we'll be looking ahead at the new goodies coming in Drupal 6. I'll provide an overview of both the API changes as well as the new features - with demos!

Toronto July Meetup : form_alter for fame and fortune
Based on some discussion on the mailing list, I thought we could spend some time this month looking at the site customization secret weapon : hook_form_alter (and it's _alter relatives). There are some pretty powerful ways you can alter core behaviours without having to hack a single line of core code.
Also, we'd love to see some show and tell, so bring yer best hacks / tricks or design :)
That's not all! July 10th happens to be my 30th birthday, so you're all invited to join us afterwards for drinks an good times. See you then!

Civicrm at DrupalCamp Toronto
I'm planning to organize some Civicrm sessions at the upcoming drupalcamp in toronto http://drupalcamptoronto.org/
I'm noticing that the civicanada group (http://groups.drupal.org/civicanada where i'm posting this), which I setup after an ad hoc session on civicrm at the last toronto drupal camp, is pretty defunct. I'm hoping that's due to a lack of leadership on my part rather than a lack of interest in the topic. In any case, if you're interested in helping out, or have some input into the content of such a session, let me know.
