In this session we will explore Drupal 7 entities, bundles and fields from a coders perspective. This will be a technical overview of the changes that have been introduced to content types in Drupal 7 and will walk through the creation of a basic content type including widgets, fields and formatters.

The zombie apocalypse is on the way. Thankfully, we have the tools to prepare ourselves. This presentation will cover the use of geospatial databases to store and process geographic data. Further, this presentation will show how geospatial databases can be integrated with Drupal to form the perfect tool to prepare ourselves for the impending hoards of the undead.

There's no purpose to site traffic if you cannot convert it into your end goal. Whether it be a purchase, phone call, or an ad click, HEO, also known as CRO, is the art of structuring, designing, and optimizing your site to convert your users. Take your SEO to the next level by adding HEO.

This session will cover the other side of the SEO coin, HEO and Conversions.
How to optimize your site for people, not robots.
Why we should spend more time focusing on conversion than traffic.

1) Defining HEO
2) SEO vs HEO
3) Where does HEO Go?

Have you ever been frustrated by the way you and your team work with Drupal, finding yourself replicating change after change or following complex and error-prone protocols to get your latest development to that production site? Do you want to be able to reuse your settings and configuration across different projects, thus speeding up your development process? Are you looking for ways to work more efficiently with your team on a Drupal project, but haven't figured entirely how?

Just after Szeged drupalcon, we won a competition for the building of a generic media platform for the french public national radio group, Radio France. The idea was to have some common basis for all their websites, grouped in a drupal website. Then each of their radio site, or any site they would produce, would be run under this platform.
There was an economical interest for them as well as getting a dedicated team with a good knowledge of this platform.

This talk will give an overview of using install profiles, aegir and features to manage multiple websites with similar (or identical) requirements. Drupal multisite has been around for years, but upgrading and managing sites in batches can still be a lot of work. These techniques will come in handy even if you have only a single site and want to improve the dev -> production workflow (i.e., no longer making changes in a live environment).

Jacob Singh (Drupal core developer, Acquia DrupalGardens engineer and Media module maintainer) will be showing off some of the new media file management functionalities in Drupal 7 core and contrib.

This session is geared toward site builders and developers, but most of it will be non-technical and appropriate for business leaders trying to grasp the possibilities. We'll be looking at:

You know when you're doing it wrong. When you're staying up all night trying to figure out what your next steps are, what you should have known three weeks ago about this particular project, and when you just don't know who does what. But you're pretty sure that everyone else doesn't have these particular problems, because they're doing so well!

This is probably wrong.

Gallery API - is an API module that was developed to combine all gallery and slideshow modules together. We bring an API that can be used to develop data layer (input method), which gives us slides and presenting layer (output method) that is responsible for displaying the gallery. The main advantage of this system is that you can create Gallery presets (just like Imagecache presets) and use any input method with any output method.

Session plan:
1. A problem of all existing gallery and slideshow modules
2. The proposed solution
3. Gallery API structure and aim
