September meeting
I'll throw this up early so we can discuss the topic. There was some talk at the last meeting about wanting to see something on theming. If you'd find it interesting or would be willing to do a little presentation, then chime in.
We'll be at the Bus Project for the meeting and then if there's demand, we'll step across the street to Produce Row. See the Google Map for directions.
Note: I corrected the date, we meet on the 2nd Wednesday of the month, not the 1st as I'd originally posted.

Qué horario te viene mejor para las reuniones?
Hola gente!
Tanto tiempo sin pasar por aquí (me tomé unas vacaciones), y me estoy poniendo al día con algunos posts EXCELENTES! Gracias!
Como hasta ahora nos hemos reunido días jueves luego de las 18 horas, (horario propuesto en las primeras reuniones) y luego se sumó gente nueva, parece justo y democrático repensar cuándo nos reunimos.
La idea es que cada uno diga qué le conviene más, así podemos organizarnos mejor.
Saludos!!

Sharing information & RSS
I think a good way to share information/links may be to use a particular tag in delicious, technorati, tags on this site, etc. So basically maybe just establish a convention that everyone tags their stuff to share.
Maybe something like:

June 2007 Meeting Notes
Alex has posted his presentation (open office format) and links from his Thursday talk on Amazon S3 services in his blog:
http://www.alexharford.com/2007/06/28/drupal-presentation/
It was a "crap happens" night so we didn't have a video projector or the audio equipment we typically have. The improvisation with the LCD monitor worked well for a video projector replacement. Using the camera microphone didn't produce as good a result. I'll leave it to Roland whether or not he wants to post the video link.

Amazon S3 - Storage for the Internet with Alex Harford.
Alex Harford will share his real world experience with Amazon S3 services.
Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. It gives any developer access to the same highly scalable, reliable, fast, inexpensive data storage infrastructure that Amazon uses to run its own global network of web sites. The service aims to maximize benefits of scale and to pass those benefits on to developers.
Boris had some thoughts on how it could be used with Drupal: Scalable static file hosting and some thoughts on Amazon S3.
We'll also be discussing some related Drupal modules and have a Drupal Q & A, so bring your questions on anything related to Drupal!
Date: Thursday June 28th, 6:30pm
Location: Bryght Offices, 1 Alexander Street, Suite 400 in Gastown. [Map] (Details below).
For those who don't need to leave right away there's typically a more social discussion at a local pub afterwards.
Read moreCar pool/Bum a ride.
I live in the commerce, mi area and was wondering if anyone lives around this area that I can car pool with to the meetings. I have a 1980 CJ-7 Jeep so it's not very trustworthy for driving for distances. I would be willing to pay for gas, it's just I don't want to drive down there and have my jeep crap out on me.

Topic for meeting/discussion?
Does anyone have a suggestion or a specific problem to address? I suspect we could all benefit from some meetings, and it might even be fun!
I'd love to organize something for June or July, but I think a topic would be a good start.
Any suggestions for location?
