July's mid-year JUGL meetup event:

Join us for this month's Joomla User Group London (#JUGL) meetup!

For July, we have two sessions from this year's Google Summer of Code students, presenting their contributions to the Joomla project

Reda Mohamed - One Article, Many Categories
Joomla articles are traditionally limited to just one category. Reda's Google Summer of Code project adds secondary categories, so a single article can be associated with multiple categories to better organise site content — appearing in each category's blogs, lists and search results, with article counts, filtering and custom fields all following along.

Weno Ndum Billy Hans - Workflows That Move Themselves
Editors move each article through Joomla's workflow by hand. Weno's Google Summer of Code project lets rules do it instead — articles advancing on their own, with a nudge when something needs a human. A workflow that runs itself.
