DrupalCon Copenhagen August 23-27 2010

A few weeks ago, CMS Report was asked to become a media sponsor for this month's DrupalCon in Copenhagen. Between the late invitation and my decrease in Internet activity this month, I have some doubts there is much time to "complete the deal". Promoting last Spring's San Francisco DrupalCon was a lot of fun and is an example of how less involved folks like me can help give back to the Drupal community. So, regardless, of whether this site is a media sponsor or not for this conference, I still want to do my part in helping promote DrupalCon Copenhagen.

DrupalCon is the twice-yearly gathering of Drupal developers and users to learn about, discuss, and contribute to Drupal, networking with other Drupal community members in the process. At almost every DrupalCon, you will have the opportunity to meet Drupal community leaders, top developers, your favorite module maintainers, dojo trainers, members of the Drupal Association, potential business partners, and future employees. If you attend a DrupalCon, I promise you that there is plenty to do and see at the conference.

Keynote speakers for DrupalCon Copenhagen include Dries Buytaert (Drupal Project Lead), Rasmus Lerdorf (PHP Project Founder), and Jeremy Keith (Author of "HTML5 For Web Designers"). What's interesting is you'll find an appreciation for the keynote speakers that are not fully embedded in the Drupal community. As much as I enjoyed Dries' "The State of Drupal" speech at DrupalConSF, the awesome talks given by Tim O'Reilly, David H. Cole, and and Andrew Hoppin still whispers in my head today. Attending a DrupalCon just doesn't improve your game with Drupal but DrupalCon can also help improve yourself as a well-rounded IT professional.

If you're in Europe this August and have a chance to stop by Copenhagen, it would be one foolish move on your part to not attend DrupalCon Copenhagen. It's definitely not too late to buy your tickets for DrupalCon CPH. You better hurry though, because all indication are that those ticket prices are going to go up on August 16th.
