I'm a Drupal core developer, and a member of the security team. As well as code I have also contributed to the project with design work, documentation, accessibility and usability improvements.

I'm also one of the organisers of the many Drupal events we've held in London for the last 5 years.

Grok Drupal Theming

Laura Scott 5 July 2010
Type:  Not planned session

So you know your CSS. You have you xhtml down, even are up on HTML5. But Drupal throws so much other stuff at you. What do you do? Where do you start?

This session provides an overview of how themes work in Drupal. The technical architecture may seem complex, but it's actually quite simple once you grasp the concepts and structures.

Topics covered include:

  • Core templates and how they work together
  • Most-used templates and the variables available
  • Overriding templates for common use cases
  • The Drupal design patterns you will need to design and theme for (whether you like it or not)
  • Changes between Drupal 6 and Drupal 7
  • Modules that make theming easier and/or more powerful
  • The parent-child theme thing
  • Working with module templates, including Views and CCK
  • Gotchas, tips and tricks

Aloha Editor - the HTML5 Editor - An outstanding new Editor User Experience

Haymo Meran 4 July 2010
Type:  Not planned session

World’s most advanced Editor is designed to give the user a complete new experience when editing a website, wiki or blog. It can load 10x faster than existing technologies and offers unprecedented opportunities.

Easier. Better. Faster.

You can edit the website content as you see it. You do not need to save or preview to see how your text will look like on the final website. You can see the real changes the right moment you type. You do not need to log into a backend to edit any text. You edit on the actual frontend website. You neither do have to load a rich text editor. Just edit right ahead. You still do have all capabilities advanced rich text editors offers.

=Aloha Editor. The HTML5 Editor.=
World’s most advanced Editor is designed to give the user a complete new experience when editing a website, wiki, blog or any other content. I can be 3x faster than existing technologies and offers offers unprecedented opportunities.

==Easier.==
===Many tried WYSIWYG and did not achieve. We succeeded.===
