Lightning talks – open mic

Anonymous 11 August 2010
Type:  Session in official program

This session is reserved for short 5-minute lightning talks. If you want to give a talk or present your cool Drupal project, please register for a speaker slot at the registration desk in the lobby. To make this session run as smooth as possible, you won't be able to use your own laptop (to cut down on the time used to get from one speaker to the next). Bring your presentation on a USB stick or structure it in such a way that you only need a webbrowser to support your talk.

The Federated Social Web and Drupal

Ronald Ashri 11 August 2010
Type:  BOF session

The move towards decentralising social activity on the web is gaining ground with efforts such as Ostatus providing a common set of standards and concepts for people to debate and hopefully, eventually agree on.

Drupal - as one of the most popular and forward thinking CMSs should take front-stage in this effort. The aim of this meeting is to bring together people interested in the Federated Social Web and in technologies such as Activity Streams, Pubsubhubbub, Salmon and WebFinger and plan how to make Drupal a fully qualified member of the federated social web.

DrupalCRM: a native Drupal-based CRM

Chris Cohen 11 August 2010
Type:  BOF session

Up until now, CRMs have been accessible through API modules, or partially integrated such as CiviCRM. Creating a Drupal CRM will be no easy task, so we're gathering to discuss how to proceed with this mammoth undertaking.

Please note this session has been moved from the earlier time of 10:00-10:50.

Up until now, CRMs have been accessible through API modules, or partially integrated such as CiviCRM. Creating a Drupal CRM will be no easy task, so we're gathering to discuss how to proceed with this mammoth undertaking.

The CRM will be developed for Drupal 7 and, resources permitting, be backported to Drupal 6.

The key issues for discussion:

  • Will DCRM use profile2 entities to represent contacts, and if so, what needs to be included?

Reporting Drupal

Steve Parks 11 August 2010
Type:  BOF session

As the community grows it becomes more important to have curated sources of news and information - helping new and experienced users alike to keep up to date with what's important or interesting. This session is for people interested in journalism about Drupal, to look at how that kind of media can best work.

Drupal now has a rapidly growing global community, and seasoned professionals find it difficult to keep up with everything that's going on - let alone the daunted newbies that are just joining.

I believed it was time to have a curated source of independent journalism about Drupal and its community - so I set up Drupalradar a month ago to do this.

Since then I've been approached by lots of people who are also interested in this, so I agreed to setup a BoF for us all to get together to discuss it.

You may want to attend this if....

The Design of HTML5

Jeremy Keith 10 August 2010
Type:  Session in official program

Everyone's talking about the benefits of HTML5 for web apps but the specification also introduces an extra layer of semantic richness to our web documents. These additions aren't wishful thinking for some far-flung future: you can start using them today. That's because the design principles driving HTML5 are steeped in pragmatism. Find out how important good design principles are to any project, whether it's a website, a content management system, or the very language that underpins the World Wide Web.
