Building sites the "right" way is what we all strive for. This means picking the right approach for the project, picking the "right" mix of modules and techniques and preparing the site so that it can be enhanced and maintained after your work is done.

Discussion that led to this meetup
Sure, you can throw php into a customfield inside a view, but should you? And of course you can do some advanced php inside your tpl files, but should you? Why yes, you can hack core, but should you?
I don't know if we have the means in our group to answer these and similar questions, but it would awesome first to identify things that, while they work, they should be avoided and what's the proper way. But even more awesome would be to know *why* we shouldn't do it that way.
