On June 12, 2010, the Los Angeles Drupal user group is hosting Git with Drupal 7, a one-day event featuring both a Git bootcamp followed by a Drupal 7 code sprint. To make this event as accessible as possible, we're broadcasting the Git bootcamp via WebEx conference from 10am-1pm PDT. Please join us!

Drupal.org is moving from using the CVS version control system to Git for the development of Drupal 8. As Drupal core development is migrated to Git, thousands of developers will need to learn Git in order to help develop Drupal 8 as well as their own contributed modules for Drupal 7 when the contrib repository is moved to Git later this year.

The importance of moving to a modern version control system was outlined last year in step 5 of Dries' 8 Steps to Drupal 8. Git was selected after a lengthy evaluation discussion, and Drupal.org's migration to Git was the subject of The Exodus: Leading Drupal out of CVS, a session at DrupalCon San Francisco earlier this year. That session was well-attended and featured members of the Drupal.org Git Migration Team, including Damien Tournoud (DamZ), Derek Wright (dww), Angie Byron (webchick) and Sam Boyer (sdboyer).

During both the bootcamp and code sprint, we'll be gathered in the #drupal-la IRC channel and all are welcome to join us. We also recorded the git bootcamp and posted the video online on blip.tv and on iTunes.

The world's most comprehensive Bioinformatics site, operated by the National Center for Biological Information has a "guide" site which explains its various resources.

It is now managed in Drupal. It is not served with Drupal, rather the content is cached to XML files, and our middle-ware app serves it using XSLT.

Thought people might like to know that.

Hi guys,

A little introduction first: Myows.com is online service for protecting your copyrights online, from registration to management and they help with the paperwork when your work is being stolen. And long story short, they recently made a call for applications to use their newly released API.

Votes are finishing in only a couple of hours and we're a bit in a "Drupal versus Wordpress" atmosphere now, so it would be great if you guys could take just 2 minutes to come and vote for Drupal.
The numbers are tied so every single vote makes a huge difference.

And as an incentive, you get 1Gb free storage space if you're voting before the poll closes :)

Please check out and register yourself as a Drupal developer at www.madewithdrupal.com. Add as many Drupal sites to your own drupal portfolio.

Made With Drupal was created to fill two basic needs in the web industry. We wanted to have a place businesses could easily find local Drupal development companies AND we wanted to help introduce the Durpal framework to companies who have never even heard about the benefits of having a Drupal website. The site is free to use by both the businesses looking for website services and the Drupal professionals wanting to be found. There are no paid listings or fees associated with participating in this website. The Development TEAM started this project in mid 2009 and released the website to the public in April, 2010.

The Wisconsin Government Accountability Board has just released a new web site based on Drupal 6. http://gab.wi.gov

Diving into Drupal without a plan makes the development process a challenge.

Here’s the catch. How can you plan a Drupal site if you don’t first have experience using Drupal to build a site? What came first, the chicken or the egg? This online open (http://planningdrupalsites.com) book offers insights into a planning process from a Drupal perspective. I am not going to give you click-by-click instructions on how to install Drupal and its modules; there are a lot of good books and video tutorials that demonstrate Drupal and modules installation. This online resource helps you define what you want for your Drupal site, making it easier to:

• Choose the right online strategy to meet your needs
• Determine how to organize your content to meet your needs
• Define the best method for getting your content into your site
• Identify which modules you will need and why
• Plan how to grow and change your site over time.

Hi,

I have an already good looking and well built Drupal ecommerce website which i am very happy with. However our Programmer who built our website has moved away and cant help us further develop this website. We want to build and develop this website and make it become a market leader in our sector. Which we are already well established in. I'm just struggling to find a programmer who can take over and do the same sort of level of works. So i have come here to get some help.

The URL is www.larkandlarks.co.uk

I also have another Drupal website www.larkandlarksdb.co.uk this was built by a different programmer, but he is telling me that he cant develop our ecommerce website because drupal is not customisable. He is recommending a total rebuild in .net or flash, which i obviously I don't want to do as i think Dupal is a fantastic framework.

If anybody has any general comments on the look or functions of my websites, please let me now.

I am in need of a custom programmer who can work with my Drupal ecommerce website and further develop it. Any ideas on where I i can get a quality programmer from? We're in the Midlands UK. If any decent programmers are reading this then please send over details to sales@larkandlarks.co.uk

Thanks in advance

Steve
