April DC Drupal Meetup April 6, 2009

DrupalCon DC has come and gone, and most of the 1,400 Drupalers that it brought to Washington, DC have gone home. That's more of a reason for the Drupal developers, the users, and the curious that call DC home to get together and pick up where DrupalCon left off. The next DC Drupal meetup will be on Monday, April 6, at 7:00 pm upstairs at Stetson's. Please join us to talk Drupal over beers. People of all skill/experience levels are welcome.

This month we'll take a slightly different approach to the meetup and will have 5 minute lightening round demos starting at 7:30 pm. The projector/screen set up isn't optimal, so we'll break into small groups and do this round robin style, with simultaneous presentations, rotations every five minutes, and a lot of huddling around laptops. Here's a teaser on what you'll see at the meetup:

* Features module, which writes your modules for you and lets you build sites faster - Jeff from Development Seed
* OpenPublish, a packaged distribution of Drupal that's tailored to online publishers - Frank from Phase2 Technology
* New module that mirror Democracy in Action forms on Drupal sites via webform - Chris from EchoDitto

There's at least one presentation slot left, so if you'd like to show off what you've been working on please post about it in the comments and come ready to present.

We also have some DrupalCon DC swag left over that we'll bring and put out for the taking. So if you missed the conference and still want the goods, that's another reason to come out (and bring back stuff for colleagues!).

We'll meet at the upstairs bar at Stetson's at 7:00 pm. More details on the venue are below. See you Monday!
