We're pleased to announce Git with Drupal 7, a one-day LA Drupal event featuring both a git bootcamp followed by a Drupal 7 code sprint. Git with D7 is being sponsored by Exaltation of Larks, Ninjitsu Web, This by Them, WebEnabled and Acquia.
Attendance is limited to 30 people (but we only have ~15 chairs - please bring one if you can). RSVPs are required so be sure to reserve your spot by clicking the Sign up button below. Anyone who wants to attend the code sprint but not the prerequisite git bootcamp must contact the organizers in advance.
Join us online for the Git bootcamp!To make this event as accessible as possible, we're broadcasting the bootcamp via WebEx conference at https://acquiawebinars.webex.com. Please see the official announcement on Drupal.org for more details.
When: Saturday, June 12, 2010 from 10am-6pm PDT Where: Specialized Digital Solutions at 4136 Del Rey Ave., Marina del Rey, CA 90292 (look for Dogma / Guidance office signs) Parking: Ample parking in the back Between Dogma and Guidance office buildings. Seating: We need chairs. If you can easily bring a chair, please do. There are only about 15 in the office. But space for at least 30.During both the bootcamp and code sprint, we'll be gathered in the #drupal-la IRC channel and and all are welcome to join us. We will also be recording the git bootcamp and will post the video online soon after the event.
LocationThe bootcamp and sprint is hosted by Specialized Digital Solutions at their offices in Marina del Rey, CA.
This is the second Drupal 7 code sprint to be hosted by LA Drupal. The last code sprint was held just prior to the Drupal 7 code freeze and was a full two-day event. Our goal this time is to work through specific issues the various sections of the core improvements handbook page and help get Drupal 7 to beta and on track for a summer release.
ScheduleWe have a lot of ground to cover and the day's basic schedule is:
- Morning set up
- Bootcamp
- Late lunch
- Code sprint
- Clean up
- Drupal After Dark
That's right, we're having another Drupal After Dark. After the bootcamp and sprint have concluded, several of us will be going out to a nearby restaurant to decompress and socialize.
Git BootcampAbout Drupal and Git
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, Damien Tournoud (DamZ), Derek Wright (dww), Angie Byron (webchick) and Sam Boyer (sdboyer).
Announcing the Git with Drupal 7 bootcamp
The bootcamp will cover the basics as well as some advanced topics. Expect to learn things such as moving from Subversion to Git, updating local code to the latest (upstream) code, checking in your modified code, undoing recent commits, undoing local changes, creating diffs and patches and so on. If you want to get a head start, check out the list of tutorials and videos on the official Git website.
The Git bootcamp will be led by Scott Nelson from This by Them and we'll be using Dries' GitHub mirror of the unofficially official git repository from git.drupalfr.org. Please plan ahead and get a copy of the latest Drupal 7 alpha well before the bootcamp.
Code SprintAfter the bootcamp, everyone will have a chance to use what they've learned. We will be breaking into teams and tackling items listed in the various sections of the core improvements handbook page:
- Upgrade path problems
- Security improvements
- API changes
- Usability issues
There will be tasks for everyone and you don't need to be a hardcore Drupal developer in order to participate. You must, however, meet the following requirements:
- you have a laptop, power cord/adapter and (if you have one) an extension cord or power strip
- git must be downloaded and installed
- you have a working server stack (e.g. Drupal Quickstart, MAMP, XAMPP, WampServer, DAMP, etc.) up and running -- for reasons discussed in the comments below, PHP 5.2.x is preferred over 5.3.x
- Drupal 7 must be downloaded and installed prior to the code sprint
Optionally, bring your favorite chair. (The office only has about 15 - but desk space for ~30).
Anyone who wants to participate but hasn't met these requirements must have VirtualBox downloaded and installed and arrive early at 9am. We will be using the Drupal Quickstart environment with VirtualBox, so download and install VirtualBox now if you don't already have a preferred working environment.
Food and drinksLunch will be provided by Ninjitsu Web. If you have food allergies or other dietary needs, please contact the organizers in advance or post a comment below. We want to accommodate as many people as possible.
Drupal After Dark!We're going out afterward to a restaurant to wind down and socialize after a long day of work. This time we'll be going to Gaby's Mediterranean at 20 Washington Blvd. near the Venice Pier. Parking on Washington Blvd. is difficult but there's parking along Pacific Ave.
Gaby's is both vegan- and omnivore-friendly. Their phone number is (310) 821-9721. There's a convenience store next door in case anyone wants to BYOB.

Drupalcamps Europe [international & english]Groups.Drupal.org sprint at Drupalcon San Francisco
Hello folks,
Josh Koenig and I are going to be sprinting at Drupalcon San Francisco to help make this site even better.
This will be on Thursday at the Post Conference Sprint. Exact location of where in that space we'll be sprinting is to be determined, but one of us will probably be tweeting about it.
If you have ideas on improvements let's brainstorm them in the comments. Ideas are welcome, plans to implement even better, and of course the time/skill to do the implementation even better! We'll be working on a staging site and will also need people to just help test the new features. So, there's opportunities for assistance for folks at all levels of Drupal skills.

The Google Summer of Code 2010 is a go!
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.
