Ryan Price and Mike Anello from DrupalEasy will be at DrupalCon San Francisco this April with a (hopefully) full agenda.

Workshop: Intro to Theme Development

DrupalEasy is proud to announce that we've been selected to present one of the official pre-conference workshops for DrupalCon SF on Sunday, April 18. We'll be teaching our beginner-level Intro to Theme Development workshop. In this course you'll learn the anatomy of a theme, basic XHTML/CSS/PHP, and basic template modifications. By the end of the day, you should be able to take a static HTML theme and turn it into a Drupal theme. The cost for the workshop is $350 and you can sign up on the official DrupalCon SF site.

Florida DrupalCamp 2010 Semi-Quick Wrapup

info@liberatr.net (Ryan Price) — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 15:53:46 +0000

While it is still fresh in my mind, I wanted get some words down about Florida DrupalCamp 2010 that took place over the weekend of February 20-21. I'll be writing up a much more detailed case-study in the coming days, but I wanted to get some thoughts down while they were still fresh in my head.

First of all - wow, wow, wow. If last year's Florida DrupalCamp showed what was possible, this year's camp shows that the Florida Drupal community has arrived. We sold out at 150 attendees (at $5/each) nearly three weeks prior to the event and eventually had a waiting list of rougly 40 additional people. Rather than completely turning away the wait-listers, we decided to do a two-hour "Intro to Drupal" session (led by DrupalEasy's Ryan Price) on day 2 of the camp that was open only to people on the wait list. In the end, more than half of them showed up for the free session (and got free lunch and a swag bag as well!)

Creating a Directory of Public Features Servers

info@liberatr.net (Ryan Price) — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 20:28:51 +0000

In an attempt to point to some of the great things that are available using Features, I tried to look for a directory of Feature Servers. Sadly, Google was not very helpful. After some digging, I was able to locate a page on the OpenAtrium Community site called Distributed Feature Servers. This points to many of the other pages I was able to find via search.

Utilmately I created a wiki page on the Packaging & Deployment group of groups.drupal.org, which seems to be one of the hottest places to discuss Features.

Directory of Public Features Servers wiki page

Currently, there is tons of info about how to create your own Features Server, but not much about where all the publicly available features servers are located. If you know of others, please go edit the wiki page on groups.drupal.org or leave them in the comments here.
