Nebraska
Welcome to the Groups site for the Nebraska Developers and Users Group, where we discuss, share and find ways to provide local face-to-face interaction which can support activities like hosting speakers, providing tutorials, Question and Answer sessions, establishing relationships with others in the geographic area, and generally expand the community of Drupal users.
We are working on scheduling regular monthly meet-ups that will alternate between Lincoln and Omaha! If you are interested, please voice your opinion on the meet-up poll.

Freelancers in Nebraska
If you are a Drupal freelancer and available for work or projects, add yourself to this list so we can give you some recognition! Please include your website/portfolio, a link to your drupal.org profile if you have one, and a short blurb about you.
Some Notes About This List
The folks listed here are savvy enough to find and edit this page. That presents a first test of basic Drupal content editing and community knowledge, but the list is not vetted nor should it be considered a "recommendation" or endorsement. You should always evaluate any company prior to engaging with them. The list is in alphabetical order.

Omaha: Recommendations for post-meetup hangouts
I'm moving to Omaha on Aug 11-12 and it will be my first time actually living there. We are most likely going to be having our meetups in Omaha at Envoy Inc, which is right near 108th & Maple. If you have a recommendation for a place that we could hang out at after the meetups for continued socialization and/or drinks, please let me know!
Expanding onto other sites
FYI for the current group members - I know that sometimes I forget to log into groups.drupal.org, so I created some tie-in accounts on other popular sites that I'll be updating along with this group. Hopefully this will help expand our reach to a few new members as well as help keep everyone more informed on their website of choice.

Local DrupalCon Paris Scholarship Winner
Congratulations to our local Nebraskan, boombatower (Jimmy Berry) for being named one of the recipients of a DrupalCon Paris 2009 scholarship! If anyone else on the scholarship list is from Nebraska and I missed you, please let me know ASAP.
Application for group admin
Since I want to start spearheading and taking charge of organizing meet-ups and events in the area, I'd like to apply to be an admin for the Nebraska group. The current admin, anthonylicari , doesn't seem too active here (no offense if you are Anthony) so maybe we should pass the torch to me, so to speak. So, that's about it. We'll see where we go from here!
Best day for Lincoln/Omaha meetup?
Nebraska Drupal IRC channel
Just to let everyone know, I just created the Nebraska Drupal IRC channel, #drupal-nebraska, so those of us here in the state of "The Good Life" can have our own place to chat. You can also use the easy web-version of IRC at http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=drupal-nebraska. For more info on how to use IRC, see http://drupal.org/irc. Hope to see you all there soon!

themer / designer | STS
Hello,
I have a startup company and am about ready to close with my first client. I initially need someone that can manipulate existing templates. The work will be mostly colors, fonts, headers, buttons, etc... no layout changes yet.
Soon I will also need someone that is capable of converting psd's to D6 themes.
Please contact me for more information.
Thanks,
Peter
Anyone interested in a meetup in the Omaha-Lincoln area?
Drupal Developer in Omaha area? | Open Source Experts
I've started a project that I do not have time to finish. The Web site deals with the exciting music industry, which is what drew me in, but my full-time commitments leave me little to no time to work on this. I'm looking for someone that can immediately pickup where I left off and get the site up and functional for the client.
The site consists of Views, Node Profiles, Ubercart, and Workflows, so advanced Drupal knowledge is required.
It is up to you to negotiate a contract with the client. I will be available to answer any question on what I've done so far.
Anyone interested in another Drupal meeting
A few of us got together last month to meet and discuss Drupal. Is anyone interested in another meeting? I could do one next week, on any day. This is my last opportunity to meet until probably mid-March.
