The Drupal tribes of the NYC metro area gathered in Brooklyn for DrupalCampNYC 7. Developers, themers, publishers, and newbies participated in the "un" conference. Topics for the sessions were collaboratively proposed and scheduled. An informal and electric atmosphere pervaded, as people traded knowledge, and asked and answered questions.
