Drupal Summit Latino 2011 - Lima, Peru

Only local images are allowed.

All of Latin America celebrates its biggest Drupal event of the year!

We can finally officially announce officially the biggest event dedicated to Drupal for the whole Latin American continent: "Drupal Summit Latino – Lima 2011".

The summit will take place in Lima (Peru) from 27th to 29th of January 2011.

We will have a full schedule of sessions by renowned and experienced Drupalers from several Latin American countries, the U.S. and Europe.

We are prepared and expect more than 300 attendees, that undoubtedly will be the highest concentration ever seen in Latin America of experience and knowledge of the most successful websites publishing software at the moment: Drupal, of course!

We invite you to propose a session for the Drupal Summit Latino 2011! Please be aware that the deadline for proposals is the 10th of January.

Drupal Get Records re-written to conform to Dupal.org's new theme and module list layouts

Here is a utility program for Drupal programmers:

I got really tired of perusing Drupal theme and module records on-line and using the Drupal.org's search utility which, frankly, could use some improvements.

So, I wrote "GetDrupalRecords" (available at http://www.strassner.com/drupal-utility-software), which will allow you to download all themes and/or module summaries to a single local file, or multiple local files, on your hard drive. You can also choose to get the summaries only or get the complete record, plus you can eliminate the releases tables, or leave them active. All links are preserved so they get back to Drupal.org destinations.

Why use this program? Because searching for and perusing themes and modules is MUCH faster locally, no matter what kind of internet connection you have.

Download link is available at http://www.strassner.com/drupalpgming

Here is what's in the readme file:

Get Drupal Records is a program that retrieves theme and module summaries from Drupal.org’s web site and saves them either to a single HTML document or separate HTML documents.

All options are present on the user interface.

Select whether you want to retrieve Theme or Module information.
Select the Drupal version for which these themes or modules are designed for.

Drupal 7.0 RC 3 Released

Release candidateUpdate: Drupal 7.0 Release Candidate 4 is available now!

We are proud to present to you the third (and likely final) release candidate of Drupal 7.0. Big news since last time!

  1. We're back down to 0 critical issues again!
  2. We've announced a January 5 release date for Drupal 7!
  3. There are release parties being thrown worldwide on January 7. Please set one up in your town! (tips)

So. It's officially GO time for final testing! Something to keep you busy over the holidays. :)

Since the last release candidate two weeks ago, we have fixed numerous bugs, improved the AJAX framework, field UI etc. Also alternate database systems have seen serious improvement thanks to http://ci.drupal.org/. PostgreSQL 9.0 now installs without errors, and we have 100% tests passing on SQLite! And files[] is no longer required in .info files for each file! Only if the file in question registers a class or interface. $cruft--;

For the full list of changes, see the release notes.

The first alpha announcement provided a comprehensive list of high level improvements made since Drupal 6.x, so in this announcement we'll concentrate on how you can help ensure that Drupal 7 is released as soon as possible and is as rock solid as the previous Drupal releases that you've grown to love!

There are a number of modules already ported to Drupal 7 for your testing pleasure. You can keep tabs on whether or not your site is ready for Drupal 7 by using the Upgrade Status module. If you are a translator, now is the time to start working on your translations. If you are a module or theme maintainer, now is the time to start working on the update to Drupal 7! Read on for more details.
