Awesome you're going to make the trek! Just note we're not downtown at WE Labs this month, but instead at LA Net (address + map have been updated above).

We'll also do our best to be online using g+ hangouts ... and definitely IRC #drupal-la

If you, or anyone, is early, give a shout to me on twitter @MediaDoneRight and we'll meet up.

Ya, I checked out the map

Ya, I checked out the map last nite & planned my trip out. No one could pick up my nephew from school so I had to do that & then no one was here & I knew I couldn't take him (he's only 6). Bummed, especially since I said i'd be there.

But will join y'all next month & will jump on irc/google hangout later on tonite to still be part of the #contribute.

peace.
