Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group (VanDUG) is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story.
The group mostly hangs out on Slack at https://vandug.slack.com/. We also post our meetings on Meetup.com at https://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Drupal-Users-Group. All are welcome, it's listed as a private group to keep out the griefers.
We've been holding semi-regular virtual meetings during COVID-19.

Hello Folks,
I just have a little question regarding eCommerce in Canada. This question regards Payment Gateways. What are our options?
I see in the handbook (http://drupal.org/node/66299) a handful of gateways supported by E-commerce. Can these be used from here? If not, any alternatives?
Thanks
Francis

October Vancouver Meetup
October means Halloween, turning our clocks back to reclaim that lost hour, and another gathering of the Vancouver Drupaliers!
The October meetup is Thursday October 26th, 6:30pm at Bryght's new office at 1 Alexander in Gastown. This will be a house warming of sorts, though I understand plants are optional. Bring your lightning talks, your questions about module programming, site configuration or anything else Drupal for "Stump the Ninja" and show off new sites you've released into the wild.
Feel free to BYOB or snacks.
Time: Thursday October 26th, 2006, 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Read moreWeb Directions North
Some well known Internet folks are running a web design conference in Vancouver in February 2007:
We’re crossing hemispheres and date lines to bring you the first annual Web Directions North. Put together by designers and developers, for designer and developers, this conference is brought to you by Dave Shea, Derek Featherstone, Maxine Sherrin and John Allsopp."
It's a 2 day conference with optional workshop the day before and 2 days of organized skiing/boarding at Blackcomb Whistler afterwards. Looks cool, but it's not priced like BarCamp!
