For anyone interested, here are the slides of the session. I'll also add the link to the video here, once it is available.

DrupalCon San Francisco was an amazing DrupalCon - about 3000 attendees!!! I had really great luck to be there at all, we passed the volcano ash by one day! Sadly lots of European Drupalistas had not so much luck :(

I really enjoyed the conference, in particular the core developer summit & the code sprints. Gladly the lightning talk I submitted for the core developer summit was selected, so I gave a short talk about Drupal's data APIs - Why inhomogeneous APIs suck - clearly entities are the way to go!

Better late as never, so here are the slides from the rules presentation at the drupalcon. I'm also attaching the two features which were built with rules during the presention:

I'm happy to announce the rules 6.x 1.0 BETA 1 release. Check out the rules project page and try it. Now the API is frozen and modules developers are encouraged to write module integration and to port their workflow-ng integration to rules. You can find the documentation here.

To get token support everywhere in your actions you just have to install the latest development snapshot of it.

Now basically everything is there, including support for

• firing core actions
• grouping rules in rule sets
• scheduling arbitrary rule sets
• a module input evaluation system
• and much more!

If you want to know more details about the improvements done for rules 6.x check out the development status page or the slides from the drupalcon session.

If you are interested in the slides of the worklfow-ng session, here are they.
