This month the folks from 38 Studios are sponsoring, and coming by to tell us a bit about how they're Doing It With Drupal (oh, and we might have a little chat about DIWD - Lullabot's amazing conference they held last week in NYC). All bad puns aside - it's going to be great to hear about how a high-profile game company is leveraging Drupal in a bunch of interesting ways. Don't miss it!

Doors open at 6 pm; we ask that you try to arrive by 6:30 pm for networking. The program starts promptly at 7 pm. The program includes introductions, some quick presentations, and a chance to pick the brains of your fellow attendees.

November 1st will be the second of five meetups where we dedicate one hour, from 6:30 to 7:30, to learning about and contributing to Drupal core. (Until we have a better name for this contribute-to-core-and-work-your-way-up-the-ladder project, I’m just going to refer to this as, “The Boston Initiative”.)

In October we proved it’s possible to get a large number of people--newbies, veterans, non-coders and coders--who have never worked the Drupal’s core issue queue up and running, making meaningful contributions in one hour. A number of people expressed interest in trying smaller breakout groups in November. This way, people on different steps in the Drupal ladder can focus on learning about or working on things that are more interesting to them.

Group leaders are key to making breakouts work. So, I’m recruiting breakout group leaders for November’s meeting. For example, if we have four people who are interested to learn how to test patches, it would be best to pair these people up with someone who has tested patches before. If you’re willing and able to lead a breakout group doing any of the activities listed below or working the issue queue for any particular Drupal 7 core component or Drupal 8 initiative, please contact me.

Possible activities for breakout groups could include:
Write tests
Re-roll patches
Write patches
Documentation: API docs
Documentation: help docs
Test patches
Find and report bugs
Draft issue summaries for long threads
Reproduce and document reported bugs
Install Git
Install Drupal locally
(other?)

See you in two weeks.

Hi Everyone,

I'm happy about all the positive feedback this proposal has gotten online and offline. And I'm delighted by the group's decision to move forward with this experiment, dedicating the first hour of our meetups from now until Drupalcon Denver to improving our own Drupal chops, finding ways to contribute to Drupal core, and developing resources to make it easier for other people to do the same.

Now that the ball is rolling, our initiative needs a name. Does anyone have suggestions?

Bryan
P.S. Some people have asked about what I'm doing now to keep things moving forward. Bit-by-bit, I've been following up on ideas and posts that came out of October's meetup and developing materials for our next meetup. Acquia is graciously donating some of my time to support our group's initiative, so I'm working on this all day today. As soon as we have a good hashtag I'll tweet some updates. In the mean time, if you're interested to help develop materials, lead a break out group at the next meetup, or do anything else to contribute to November's activity, please contact me.
