First Belgian DrupalCamp

http://buytaert.net –

Next weekend, on Saturday June 17, the French-speaking Drupal community in Belgium is organizing Belgium's very first DrupalCamp. The event takes place in Louvain-la-Neuve which makes it pretty accessible for both Dutch and French-speaking Belgians. Details are available on http://drupalfr.be. Due to the work of Gilles Bailleux, the event got some great press in this weekend's edition of the Belgian newspaper, La Libre Belgique. Both a screenshot and a PDF are provided below.

It's always great to meet Drupal people, so I currently plan to go to Utrecht on Friday, to Louvain-la-Neuve on Saturday, and back to Utrecht on Sunday to help with the Drupal 7 usability code sprint. It's just great to see so many community events being organized -- we've gotten to a point where there are often Drupal events happening at the same time in different places in the world.

Craving a taste of home: Belgian lunch 44 weeks 3 days ago

I've been living in the US for over a year now but am currently in Belgium for a short vacation. For the past year, I've been craving a taste of home; not all Belgian food is available in the US and even when it is, it can taste differently.

When we arrived in Belgium this weekend, my mother prepared us lunch. It tasted so good. Nothing like eating at home. The foodie in me was reminded of all the things I miss, and the photographer in me wanted to take some pictures to remind myself once we're back in the US.

Dries Buytaert: Drupal Developer Days Brussels 2011: call for speakers 1 year 22 weeks ago

We co-located the very first DrupalCon in 2005 with FOSDEM, now Europe's largest open source developers meeting.

DrupalCon Paris wrapup 2 years 37 weeks ago

I took a few days off from work to spend some time with my family -- I haven't had more than a 3 hour break in the last 4 weeks and was away from home during the weekends. DrupalCon Paris ended about 48 hours ago, so I'm sitting here with post-DrupalCon blues, staring at the waterfront, thinking about how fun and exciting the conference was. As usual, I wasn't able to attend more than a couple of sessions, but nothing beats talking to Drupal users and brainstorming together. And I talked to many Drupalistas ...
