Now that the lazy summer is over, the Drupal communities of Belgium, The Netherlands and France have busy days ahead next month.

Paris, October 4-5: DrupalN'GO
DrupalCamp Paris and Drupaln'go
A Drupal BarCamp with some extra juice: during one weekend the French Drupal community (non-French are welcome too of course) will build a website for a French NGO. When we subscribed already over 50 participants had joined in!
Language at the BarCamp/DrupalN'GO is French&English.

More information on the offcial DrupalN'GO-site: http://drupalngo.org/ (French or English) or at drupal.be: http://drupal.be/node/1588 (Dutch)

The Netherlands, October 24: Codesprint

Now that the people of Dutch development company MadCap have moved to their bigger offices, they claim to have a great spot for a Drupal codesprint, and they invite everybody to check it out (remind some of us recently were at a codesprint at MIT (see pic) ;-)

MadCap provides the location, their best coders and pizzas!
We at Krimson have promised to bring some Belgian beer ...and our coders too, they generally follow where the beer goes :-)

The MadCap offices are less then 1 hour driving from both Antwerp or Amsterdam and only 1:30h driving from Gent, so distance shouldn't be an issue. If you want to join in from antwerp, me might be able to offer you a seat in our Krimson van.

Language at the CodeSprint will be both Dutch & English.

The Netherlands, October 25-26: T-DOSE has a drupal track
T-Dose is a yearly free event to promote the use and development of Open Source Software. Thanks to Joeri and Kris Drupal got a full track!
The call for papers has been extended till September 30; so we might expect the full schedule one of these days.
[Edit: See http://www.t-dose.org/schedule - Track on Saturday]

Keep an eye on this group for all information: http://groups.drupal.org/node/12000

The Netherlands, October 31: The 3rd DrupalJam
While I still do not really understand the 'Jam' in it's name, I do appreciate the concept: DrupalJam is the perfect spot to meet other drupal enthusiasts from the Netherlands and Belgium.

If there is only 1 meeting you can go to in October, but you do not know what to chose: make sure it's the DrupalJam. It's well worth waiting 31 days for :-)

Co-founder of Krimson and online since Fidonet. His informatics education first guided him to an all-but-ninja past, marked by corporate evil working as a technical architect/consultant. But after meeting Roel in Sunnyvale, CA they both felt that leaving the Banking World of Dour for the cowboy lifestyle of Drupal Development was the right thing to do. This Technical Drupal Architect Ninja Master recently had to push back his suicidal craze for parachute jumping, sky diving and other life threatening adventures to be converted into a responsible parent.
