*
* http://drupal-kitchen.com is up now.
* It has some structure to it and comments enabled, so we can discuss different aspects of it easier.
* So, if possible, please use the site to comment/ask questions.

* One last thing: April 11/11 (tentative, 7:30 @ Ocho, 193 Spadina ave) we will be meeting to talk about the details of the event and how it would work.
* I'm hoping to do a "dress rehearsal"  for that night too, to really find where any bottle necks might be, FYI.

Hi Everyone,

So, during this past DUG-TO meet up I proposed the idea of Drupal-Kitchen to the group.

The basic idea of the proposal is this:
An alternate night for us to meet up where instead of giving/listening to presentations, we do a hands-on activity. What's the activity? We try our damnedest to build an entire web project in 3 hours. Sounds ambitious, I know. But, the goal is not to "complete the project". The goal is to see how far we can get, challenge ourselves, learn, have fun, and hangout doing something we all love to do - drupal.

I think most people are on board for some kind of "hands on" drupal night. But, I'd really like to push the idea that we work on real projects. There's more to be learned, and there's the potential to either donate our time to good causes, or work towards cash rewards.

So, below I quickly re-caped the presentation (you can check out the prezi here - http://prezi.com/yubmx80onxpn/drupal-kitchen/ ).
But, before I do:
- If you'd like to find out more on all the details, you can read and join the discussion at http://drupal-kitchen.com
- Coming up, April 11th we will be meeting to talk about the details of the event and how it would work.

Thanks,
