mini-camp

At tonight's TriDUG February 2014 monthly meetup at Bull City CoWorking was tentative agreement that we more seriously consider holding our own mini-camp, as started in my post here: https://groups.drupal.org/node/405333. We had identified a number of desirable attributes of the mini camp format; in particular, keeping the format simple so that can better make one happen. We have a number of options to consider and we agreed that using G.D.O. is the best starting point for these discussions. So I'm getting the ball rolling with the next few posts.

Précis

The Western New York State Drupal User Group https://groups.drupal.org/western-new-york coined the term "mini-camp" for its one-day, nontraditionally located event that was first held on a Saturday in late April, 2013. The benefits of a lower planning overhead, 11 a.m.–5 p.m. session schedule, and unanimous thumbs up of the venue and program inspired us to propose this format as an adjunct to Drupalcamps and Drupalcons.

We're keeping this fairly informal, but would like to gather a list of topics for talks and BoFs.

It's at http://groups.drupal.org/node/284053 and is running for two weeks.

Preliminary info on the event is here.

Thanks.

The Western New York State Drupal User Group knows about your bogged down winter and soon to be dreary spring. . . .

How about a change of scenery?

Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 27, 2013 . . . our first MINI-CAMP.
