Washington, DC June Drupal Meetup Tonight

Talks on OpenPublish, Searchlight, and local Drupal trainings

The June Drupal meetup is tonight (Monday, June 14) at 7:00 pm at Stetson’s Bar and Grill. In addition to having some great talks on the schedule on OpenPublish, search in Drupal, and Drupal trainings, this month’s event is also part of Digital Capital Week - the weeklong technology festival happening this right now in Washington, DC. Hopefully we’ll see some new faces at the meetup :)
