Joomla! User Group New England usually meets the third Wednesday of every month from 5:30 - 7:00 PM at the Marlboro College Graduate School (directions). All interested Joomla! developers are welcome to attend.

Our next meeting will be held on February 15, 2012, at 5:30 PM.

Meeting topic: Joomla 2.5

Joomla 2.5 has just been released. Andrea Tarr will demonstrate some of the new features of this release. We'll go over how to upgrade from 1.7 to 2.5 and somethings to watch out for. We'll also go over ways of migrating from 1.5 to 2.5.

We'll also have happy and sad Joomla stories. Please join us!

Don't forget to register for Joomla Day New England happening the end of March!

Pizza, Bugs and Fun

 If you'd like to join the global effort on March 3rd to stamp out bugs and improve documentation in Joomla 2.5, come join us at the Marlboro College Graduate Center on that day.

There will be bug fixes to help test and also documentation that needs to be updated. It's a good way to give back to Joomla and also to learn more yourself.

For more information on the main event, see the wiki Pizza, Bugs and Fun March 3, 2012.

We'll have more details on the local event as the day gets closer.
