First Buenos Aires Drupal Users Group Meeting held!
[Versión en español abajo]
It was great meeting with everyone and talking about Drupal face-to-face, in person, with real live people!
We spent a couple of hours introducing ourselves, and how we are working at present with Drupal.
Then we spoke about what kind of activities we would like to plan for our new group, and what kind of contribution we could make back to the community, including the Drupal community as a whole and helping grass-roots groups who need to get their message out.

Hi, I'm Lisa Smith, online manager for BlufftonToday.com. I've been taking care of Steve's pet project since this summer when I joined the newspaper world for the first time. Before joining the staff here, I was a freelance web designer/developer.
Bluffton Today is a unique paper in many respects - we are a free tabloid-format paper distributed daily to every household in our town. Our daily circulation is 17,500. The community at BlufftonToday.com is vibrant and outspoken and has taken ownership of both the print product and the web site with amazing fervor.

A module called nodeauthor has recently been brought to my attention and is another module that could do with Microformat support.
From this screenshot you can see it add's a "About Author" at the bottom on a post regarding the node's author.
Read moreProtecting against Microformat spam
If you look at This comment on my site, it might look like nothing - but check with Tails, and you find a hidden spam hCard.
It's very easy to produce one and embed it in to a post or comment, which will then be indexed by sites such as Technorati.
So what can we do to stop this type of spam before it starts?
Disucss.
Infact, its' been posted here too:

Well for one, I do. I am a web developer for a scottish music company, who is using Drupal to create our next generation websites.
I'd like to see how many people on here use Drupal, and if we can work together on organising a group meeting either in Glasgow or Edinburgh.
Leave your comments and join the group!

Sna Module Upgrade To Drupal 5
I plan to modify to module according to Drupal 5 requirements. It can be expected in December month. I assume that there are not so things to rewrite, because the biggest part of the module is Drupal-independent code.
Watch the project website to track the upgrade.
Drupal Shop talk as "podcast"
If anyone is interested in working with me to edit the drupal shop talks into podcasts, please let me know. My editing skills are sub par, and I think that alot of interesting bits come out of the calls, and would be helpful for folks if they were edited and highlighted.
