Hi everyone,

My name is Phil, I'm a software engineering coop student at UVic. I'm currently on a work term for the BC institute of Cooperative Studies. My main task is to develop a site using Drupal 5. We recently lost our Technology Director, leaving me with no technical supervisor. I have been trying to jump through the initial learning curves as fast as possible; however, I have been finding it slow and tedious by my self.

Hey there fellow drupal enthusiasts!

Location

We are gathering again at Bart's, and may migrate to the Doubles Lounge across the hall in the Executive Inn. The Lounge can be quite a bit less noisy and usually more space, plus it has that nifty Victorian darkwood lounge atmosphere.

I generally show up around 6:30 for a bit of vittles, they have great food and a number of local beers on tap.

Some of the things that may be discussed are:

• Experiences/Storires from Drupal Camp Victoria 2008 (#DCVIC08) Link
• Switching to Drupal 6, explain the pain/glory
• Possible ideas/suggestions for #DCVIC09

Hi
If you can walk on the ferries, let me know what your ETA is and i can pick up groups of 6 at a time and shuttle folks to town. I will also be available for transporting people to the ferry at the end of the camp.

Short notice, but here it is anyways!

At bart's again, be there!

We will be discussing various things for the upcoming Drupal Camp Victoria in September.

Hi Everyone,

Other than the new theme I just proposed, I also would really like to learn more about Views Arguments.

This was of great interest to me when I was the Views argument session at the DrupalCamp Vancouver. However, I cannot wrap my head around it and I thought it would be a good subject to tackle if it's of interest to anyone else. I've got several applications that we can use as examples that would help several of my sites if that helps to get us going.

Please don't hesitate to comment if you have any other topics that you would like to tackle.

See you later!

Hi everyone,

Just proposing that we do something "productive" if it's of interest to anyone during our next Drupal social (May 26).

We have been using a combination of Layout Gala & Tripoli at northStudio. This has worked out very well for us and I have been very tempted to release the theme on Drupal.org. However, I have decided to hold off because I think that if we put our heads together we could create something that could dramatically change what most people think is possible with a theme.

We've set up an event node here on g.d.o for people to signup for the seattle drupalcamp. All information will eventually be posted on this node.

Here is the short of it (as you may know):
June 27, 28 10am to 5pm
Youngstown Arts Center (site of last year's camp), its about 5 miles south of downtown.

Find out more and signup, space is limited right now to 80 people.

Contribute session ideas

Here we go again, meet up is at Bartholomew's pub. Everyone is welcome, come enjoy some food and beverages and lively conversations...

7PM till whenever.

Gord.
