Meetups
Lunchtime - Salt Lake City
There is a meetup in downtown Salt Lake City on the 2nd Thursday of each month. An event is posted for each meetup a week or two in advance to determine topics and manage other plans.
Meetup Topics
We will be planning and organizing topics for our meetups here: Meetup Topics
When should we meet next?
While Provo may be the ideal place to meet for most, who would be willing to occasionally attend a meeting in Salt Lake?
Broken poll, disregard...
October Meetup?
Hey everyone,
Our last meetup was in August, and since we decided to meet every other month, we are due for a meetup this month. Go ahead and chime in on a possible date and location. Also, any suggestions for topics or presentations are always welcome.

Student Curriculum Website
I've recently been tasked with putting together a Drupal Site that will be used to provide students with steps on what it takes to complete their Technical Training at our College. We're not a traditional College—we are open-entry/open-exit and as such our students don't usually work together on the same things at the same time. The student needs to be able to log-in and gain access to materials exclusive to the classes or program that they are enrolled in. This part is pretty much done without any problems.
Read more36 Sections of Content with Authenticated Access
I'm trying to set-up a site that will allow students that are enrolled in our different College programs (i.e. IT, Media Design, Pharmacy Technician, etc.) to have access to their curriculum (meaning web links, pdfs, docs, xls, etc.) through a web interface. We are open-entry/open-exit so we have students coming and going all of the time. We would like to keep a close eye on the students when the withdraw from the class to make sure that their access is taken away from the content for that class.

Hey everyone,
This was mentioned at the meetup, but I wanted to post it here as well. I received a message from Clint Savage at the Utah Open Source Foundation, one the people who run the Utah Open Source Conference. They've given me a promo code for the Utah Open Source Conference 2009 to pass on to everyone. It's good for 50% off the Full Access Pass to the 2009 conference, making it only $35 from the normal registration price of $70.

Read moreMeet-Up Tonight: Update Agenda!
As many of you know our August Meet-Up is tonight in Provo, UT on the BYU Campus. We're anticipating about 10+ people there (quite possibly more). We're excited to have a good crowd there and want to provide the best material possible to them. If you have something you want to discuss, or a topic you'd like to learn more about then post it to the Agenda. The Agenda will be used tonight to keep things organized and on task. Don't be afraid to throw your name up there to show off or discuss something that you've recently worked on!

Drupal Resources
Has anybody got any good resources for Drupal squirrelled away in their favorites folder?
I find that whenever I search for a Drupal topic, I see 4million websites out there with the Drupal API reference - well done, guys. We only need one, and it's at Drupal.org. All they've done is clutter up the results, so actually finding examples of how to use the more obscure regions of Drupal is very tricky. Searching Drupal itself is rarely helpful, as their website is so disorganised; I'm sure I saw an example of something once, but it disappeared before I had a chance to bookmark it!

August Meet-up Place and Date discussion
Let's discuss the meet-up in August. The tentative date I have set is August 18th (3rd Tuesday) and currently have no place arranged. We now have 70 members in our Utah Group and we are pretty spread out unfortunately. I'd like to be able to make the meetings convenient for as many people as possible. Alright, let's discuss!
(Once we get a date and place determined I'm going to start a wiki page with the Agenda)

How did the meet-up go? Can someone provide a summary of what was talked about? Did we have 6 show up?
My apologies for not being there. With a sick newborn and a difficult 2 year-old I just couldn't leave my wife (who ironically broke her foot last week). Anyway, as you can see there was really only one good choice. :)
Read moreDrupal Utah group meeting - June 30 2009
It sounds like we agree on June 30, 2009. Thanks to the guys at American Academy for being gracious hosts. We'll plan on 7pm, unless the group decides otherwise. I think discussion will be primarily about setting up different types of photo galleries, and the For Every Child site will be used as our example. Other topics are welcome.
