Drupal.org is undergoing a massive change. It's our home and playground. It's also a public face of Drupal. In this session, some of the team discuss:

• Why Drupal.org needed a redesign
• How the Drupal.org redesign project is also a redevelopment, and the technical challenges we face
• What project management strategies worked, and what didn't, and what we're learning along the way
• Why the Drupal Association had to hire people
• Overview of our contributors

One thing is certain, this is not your typical open source project.

The Views module is one of the most innovative and important Contributed Drupal modules, second in usage only to Drupal core.

Views empowers site administrators to easily create customized listings of content, and has changed the way developers build their modules. In this session, we'll focus on how Views empowers site administrators to build complex listings of content without any programming knowhow.

Come see why Drupal is the best platform for building conference and event websites that meet the needs of attendees, event organizers and sponsors!

In this session we'll build a conference website from scratch that provides robust features including:

• Proposing and voting on sessions
• Setting a session schedule for the event and for each attendee
• Making it easy for attendees to register, pay and provide profile information
• Managing a waiting list of attendees
• Collecting and displaying sponsor information

For any kind of Drupal website, it happens very often that existing modules get you 90% of the way but you still need some customizations to get things looking and working exactly the way you want. Not a brand new module, just some site-specific adaptations that get you to 100% of what you want.

Are you still not using Drupal to manage your projects? Since July 2009 excuses are running thin. And if Open Atrium didn’t do everything you ever expected from your project management system, it’s about time that we join forces and build our own dog food.

In this session I’ll present a review of Drupal built tools for project management. You'll get an introduction to Open Atrium and the tools we developed for Knowledge and Project management in Open Atrium.

As great as 960.gs is, it's not where designing grids should begin and end. Grid systems should be the basis of your layout thinking. If you're picking up an existing grid - like 960.gs, you're not designing, you're taking a shortcut, and it could be in the wrong direction.
