The Google Summer of Code 2010 is a go!

Sun, 2010-02-21 20:14

I'm excited to announce that the Google Summer of Code is happening again in 2010! Last year Drupal went a perfect 18-for-18, meaning that all of our students passed the SoC, and we even got a "bonus student" who worked on Drupal module for the Creative Commons.

Please help get the SoC started by joining the Google Summer of Code 2010 group, and by posting project ideas to the group! Student Proposals should be marked as such in the "Project Type", as the students will get first dibs on that project idea once the voting starts. All other project ideas should be marked "Community Proposal" and will be open to all SoC applicants.

If you are a student thinking of applying to the program I highly suggest you do the following things:

  • Carefully read the GSoC 2010 FAQ
  • Sign up for an account on Drupal.org and fill in your profile information
  • Ask questions here or in #drupal, and start looking for potential mentors

And if you are thinking about becoming a mentor, please do! Not only is the SoC a great way to get more involved in the community and/or groom the next Drupal superstars, but it's not a ton of work and is a whole lotta fun! There are also many other ways to get involved, including: student outreach, mentor and student checkins, group administration, project reviewers, and more. Please contact me if you'd like to get involved! (And if you'd like to help with the application, it would be great to have help)

Drupal's application will need to be submitted by March 12th, and proposals will begin being accepted on March 18th. Please see the SoC Timeline for more information about other due dates.

We're very excited to be creating opportunities for the local community as well, with an event we call Coding for a Cause. A local non-profit will get a free website on the second day of our camp, built by the community.

Special guest Addison Berry (add1sun) of Lullabot, the Drupal Documentation lead, will be our guest of honor, as well as Doug Vann (dougvann), Benjamin Doherty (bangpound) and tons of amazing Drupal contributors from all around Florida. We may also see the first ever live taping of a DrupalEasy podcast, with @ultimike, @andrewmriley and @liberatr at the helm.

We will have three tracks of sessions running on Saturday - if you'd like to present, please contact @damienmckenna for details - he is easy to find on IRC, groups.drupal.org/florida or twitter. Tracks will be split out into a beginner and intermediate track, as well as a third special interests track. We will have a big tent outside for lunch and BOFs throughout the day, as well as our traditional install-fest in the morning.

Lunch on BOTH days is included with your $5 reservation. If you're coming to the community service part on day 2, we will need to know in advance.

Visit http://2010.fldrupalcamp.org for information, schedules, registration info, and to get involved with Coding for a Cause. We hope to see you there!

Drupalcamp Spain 2010: registration is open!

Thu, 2010-01-14 13:38

Registration is open for the first DrupalCamp ever in Spain. Yes, you are right, it will not be the first drupal meeting in Spain: we had a GREAT Drupalcon in Barcelona on 2007. However, this will be a Camp, the first DrupalCamp in Spain. It will be held in the same venue as the event in 2007, the Citilab, so some of you already know what this means: an excellent venue to have hundreds of drupalistas talk, work, sharing, hiring, eating, learning, etc. on Drupal.

We already had 430+ pre-registrations and REGISTRATION is now OPEN! (the venue can hold "only" 400 people, so....)

Don't miss it. There will be 4 session tracks. At least one of them in English. It might be two tracks in English if enough sessions are proposed. We will also have a job fair and already know that many web shops will be hiring. Don't miss it!

Check the schedule for the three days of camp: 26, 27 and 28 of February, 2010, in Barcelona, and then propose and/or vote your sessions.

Packaged distributions now deployed on drupal.org!

Tue, 2009-12-01 07:02

The testing phase is over... 3281d Consulting is extremely pleased to announce that the new distribution packaging system is now deployed on drupal.org. The announcement on the front page of drupal.org contains lots of details about how the system looks for end users of Drupal distributions, including lots of nice UI changes to project pages and release nodes.

If you maintain an installation profile on drupal.org please read the How to package a profile on drupal.org handbook page. It's really not that hard, but there are some very important things you need to read and understand to make use of the new system. Support requests and "bug reports" from people who just didn't read the handbook page won't be well received. ;) Oh, and speaking of issues, if you find one, please search the packaged install profiles tag before submitting a new one.

Exciting times -- go forth, yonder profile maintainers, and make Drupal more usable!

Thanks!
-Derek
