Drupal7Camp YADDP Presentation

At drupal7camp in Leeds I presented about how we develop and deploy our sites using Git and various Drupal tools.

I talked about the pros and cons of using Features and various different tips and tricks that we find really useful when developing.

Here is a copy of my presentation uploaded to Slideshare.

Overall the weekend was a huge success with a good attendance and session list. Thanks to all those involved in making it a great get together!

Off to Drupal 7 Camp in Leeds

On the 21st-22nd of May Leeds will be hosting the Drupal 7 Camp.

I'll be representing Ixis at the Camp. I'm hoping to be presenting about our internal Development/Deployment processes and possibly providing an introduction to Drupal 7 module development. Expect a full blog post on both presentations after the event.

The camp is a great opportunity to mix with other Drupal developers and people from the industry. If your around feel free to come and say hi.

With the promise of 144 pints of locally brewed beer it promises to be a great event! Tickets are still available - get yours here.

Drupalcamp Success!

The first Drupalcamp UK was held over the weekend at the BBC Backstage in Manchester. It was a great success with a large number of visitors showing up for both days. Congratulations to Dan Smith for pulling the event together and keeping it going over the weekend.

It was great to put faces to names, and chat with developers from across the country.

Setting up Multisites in Drupal

I dipped my toe in to the world of presenting at this weekends Drupalcamp, giving a short 30 minute session on how to configure your server environment to work with Drupals Multisite ability.

The slides used in the session are now available on slideshare.net if you'd like to take a closer look at the command line output I demonstrated, or the Apache VirtualHost configuration format.

Drupalcamp schwag - Drupal stress balls

For the upcoming DrupalCamp UK we have designed some stress balls in the shape of the Druplicon to give away to all attendees.

They turned up today just in time for the 'camp, so we thought we'd share some action shots as the little Druplicons invaded the Ixis office and servers.

For those unable to attend DrupalCamp UK we'll send out your very own Druplicon to the first 5 people to shoot us a message via the contact form with their name and postal address.

Feedback appreciated, and we'll see (some of) you at DrupalCamp Manchester this coming weekend!

DrupalCamp UK Competition Prizes

On the run up to DrupalCamp UK event in June I've been in contact with various book publishers to get some books for prizes. As a result we proudly present the first Sponsors of DrupalCamp UK. Both publishers have been extremely helpful and generous with their offerings of prizes and future discounts.

Drupalcamp Manchester

Next month sees the first Drupalcamp event being held at the BBC New Broadcasting House building on Oxford Road, Manchester. Perfectly located with in walking distance to train, bus, tram networks, as well as drinking establishments at the end of the day.

The weekend event spans the second week of June '09, so should be accessible to enough new and seasoned Drupal users and developers to visit. It's being organised by members of NWDUG - the North West Drupal User Group.

The format of a "camp" is based on a user generated conference — open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants.
