I want to thank all the folks who participated in the session “Communication, Cooperation, Collaboration: Can Drupal Shops Work Together”, based on the conversation during the session, and subsequently during the remainder of the conference that answer is, “Yes, we can, and we must.” What follows are notes from the session which thanks to Robin Barre for taking notes. I have taken my best shot at redacting and organizing them.

Here are the slides from my Drupalcon session yesterday (open the PDF version if you want the LOLcats). The session went very well - there was some great feedback and lots of good questions asked.

One of my 3 DrupalCon Session Proposals got accepted and was scheduled last week: Scalable Theming: Theming for 100s of node types, CCK fields, and views.

Advanced theming tips, tricks and techniques for very large complex websites with many node types, CCK fields and views. This session is targeted at themers & developers wishing to learn how to manage complex theming requirements in a cost-saving, maintainable and scalable way.

I started work on the coder module a little over a year ago, as a response to an internal engineering meeting where were discussing Quality Assurance code reviews, and said "we should have a module to do that."

At OS/CMS I briefly introduced coder in the Lightning Talks session.

While in Barcelona, pre-conference, I gave a Drupal Dojo titled Upgrading your contrib modules to D6? Coder module can help!.

In my ongoing campaign to think and be carbon neutral, and spread the message far and wide, I asked the DrupalCon Boston organizers to post information about offsetting the carbon footprint associated with traveling to DrupalCon in March.

I hope that individuals and shops will consider purchasing offsets for their DrupalCon associated travel, as well as other travel.
