They have a sweet drupal development book there for $22.50 that you can get as an ebook. I've not gotten it yet but I figure I might as a thank you to them. It seems like the best way to get and keep good sponsors is to tangibly support them. There's a host that gives $50 to drupal for every customer that I've seen posted on here. That seems like another good way to support the supporters.

This means I'll be able to point the students I'm mentoring to sections of the book. Perfect!

It's just one way we thought we could say thanks to the Drupal community for creating such a wonderful project and for being so supportive of our publishing efforts!
