Drupal Australia Group on Drupal.org

Start:  2010-03-24 17:30 - 19:00 Australia/Perth Organizers:  alexkb samhassell User group meeting

Hi again everyone,

The next Perth Drupal meetup is scheduled for 5:30 pm, Wednesday 24th March, 2010 at the Itomic Office in West Perth.

This will be our forth Drupal meetup in Perth, but the first that will follow some structure and won't be located at the (noisy) pub!

Below is the structure we are going to try to follow:

1. Introductions: everyone (or perhaps just the regulars?) to introduce themselves and their backgrounds in general.
2. Drupal South Wellington Debriefing by Thomas (thsutton).
3. Show & Tell: have those who wish to, talk about a Drupal project they are currently working on and/or recently completed where they've learnt something new and interesting.
4. Drupal Q&A HowTo: ask a question about any topic relating to drupal including but not limited to theming, informational architecture, module development, best practice modules, etc.
5. Discuss which topics should be focused on for the next meetup.

The Itomic Perth Office is located at Suite 34, City West Centre, corner Plaistowe Mews & Sutherland St, West Perth (google map link). You can either catch the train and walk 100 metres from the City West Train station (Fremantle line), or park in the City West section (where Scitech/Harvey Norman's is, which is free for the first 2 hours).

Itomic will be kindly supplying the meetup with beer, but if someone else could please bring some nibblies (chips, or something) that would be great.

As always, if you're interested in anything Drupal, please come along - all types are welcome: techies, project manager's, hobbyists, students, designers, anyone!

Please email either Sam or myself (alex.bergin@gmail.com) if you'd like a mobile contact number to help with finding the place.

Cheers and look forward to seeing you at the meetup!

I'd like to invite everyone in Melbourne (that's everyone, bring your mum) to Drupal meet-up at Em Space offices.

Brian Gilbert of realityloop will be presenting on Drupal Website Prototyping, he'll be demonstrating some apps (and he'll have freebies!).

It starts at 6:30 next Tues at L8, 289 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. Arrive before that or you'll have to ring me on 0425 869 746 so I can let you in.

Here we are on the map.

I'm sorry to say that this will probably be the final meet-up at our Melbourne office as Em Space is scaling down. Hope to see you there!

Cheers

Wondering if anyone from Australia and New Zealand is attending Drupalcon in San Francisco (http://sf2010.drupal.org/).

It would be great if you could reply to this so we can keep track and hopefully meet up in the States.
