Any idea for a HKDUG logo?

Any idea about having a logo for our HKDUG, similar as Taiwan Drupal User Group, Sacramento-Area Drupal User Group or Central Ohio Drupal User Group?

When I mention this idea with my friend Yuki Lam she would like to contribute some design for brain storming. Please feel free to comment and let's discuss about it :D

mysql has gone away issue...

I've encounter some strange issue with a update cache_update sql which caused the mysql connection link to be disconnected.
But when i execute it in my mysql query analyser, it seems to be okay...
I'm not sure why it happen in drupal, but it seems to the 250th++ query it is executing via the same connection.
It seems to disconnect very often after that...
What i did was that, i do a mysql_ping before executing any queries...
But i'm concern if the disconnected connection query is successful or not.
Anyone got any idea?

btw, here was my fix, for those who encounter similar issue:

Drupal Excessive SQL Queries...

On my site, i've installed several modules which leads to about:
+ 250+ queries on admin page
+ 160+ queries on every other page accessed , including frontpage.

I'm amazed by the number of queries it used up...
Thats why the site seems to be quite slow...
Anyone have any suggestion?
I know i need to trim down on my modules, but i think some of the large number of queries are from drupal core itself...

Ubertcart with Hong Kong post as shipping method

Has anyone setup a Drupal commerce site with the Ubercart and use Hong Kong post as a shipping method?

I'm interested in hearing your experience if so.

It doesn't appear that there is a Hong Kong post shipping sub-module.

We are going to use Paypal as the payment gateway and want to be able to plug in shipping confirmation and tracking number information.

Thanks.

Need help setting up users

I want to create a Supervisor role who has the rights to create other users for the site. But if I gave "administer users" rights to Supervisor, I found that he will be able to block me (the admin) out. What's more, this Supervisor will not be able to assign the newly created users to the predefined roles unless I also gave him the "administer permissions" rights. And with that rights, he can practically do anything he wants, which of course, is not what we want.

Any comments?

Thanks

A HKDUG site to promote Drupal thanks to Acquia?

http://buytaert.net/free-acquia-hosting

Folks, we had been talking about setting up a sandbox environment since forever! With the new developments in D6 and D7, isn't this a good opportunity for us to get a free hosting space, set up a tutorial space and a testing / sandbox space... etc?!

Let's think of a good domain name! Here are some suggestions:

hkdug.org
hkdug.com
hkdrupal.com
hkdrupalug.com
