The D7CX movement is based around the idea that while it's really important that we launch Drupal 7 by finishing off the critical issue queue it's also enormously important that we have our many contributed modules ready to go the day that Drupal 7 is launched.
Drupal core is an amazing piece of software, but Drupal core without the many wonders of contributed modules and themes is nowhere near as much fun.
GVS Hosts D7CX Sprint Day
So, April 4th we are hosting a D7CX Sprint Day here at our office. We will provide power strips, internet, coffee, camraderie. You should bring your laptop, and some skills in testing out and upgrading Drupal's contributed modules. The sprint will run from 9:30 AM until about 6:00PM - but you are welcome to show up for any part of that time.
Some possible tasks:
- Rewriting documentation for Drupal 7
- Helping to write simpletests so that contributed modules can benefit from a test-driven-development cycle much like core has benefited from it
- Creating patches for the modules and themes to work with the new api.
Folks will be available to help provide instruction in checking out code with cvs, rolling patches, and posting responses in the issue queue.
Some people on hand with specific module experience
