Drupal 8 and Relativity: An Event Management System for the Drupal Community

For the past 2 years, BDUG has been teaching in-depth concepts into Relativity for real world applications. Our ecosystem concept while complex and extremely powerful set the stage to on-board experienced devs into a new way of doing things. But whether an ecosystem, or a single site, Relativity serves as the foundation, engine and manager of all system functions.
Now it’s time to exercise the concepts learned over the past two years and provide a Relativity build for multi event management functions to offer to the Drupal community. A perfect example of where this system would be helpful would be for state wide Drupal groups, local user groups etc. (maybe even a DrupalCon)  😉
Hector and myself put the challenge out to BDUG members to accomplish this task and the request was met with overwhelming enthusiasm across many people.
We have agreed to set up future meetups to follow this build from concept, to documentation, to team building, implementation, documentation and community offering.
Meetups will be in two parts each. The first part being collaboration break outs, task assignments, time management and approvals. The second half would be to present on-screen results of the previous meetup deliverables.
Hector and I both wish to extend a HUGE thanks to volunteers and welcome any and all new comers to join in and contribute. There’s always a place for anyone with a desire to become part of this endeavor.
Here’s to BDUG and all our members. You are all top notch folks and we are honored to be part of this with all of you.
Jay and Hector
