Drupal is heading for Amsterdam

On Tuesday the DrupalCON will start in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. More than 50 Drupal coders, administrators and enthusiasts from Chile to China and from South Africa to Estonia gather together, truly showing off the global strength of the Drupal community. We will share our thoughts, present new ideas and implement them in code during these three days.

Not only will we share our thoughts within our own community, we will also be communicating with other open source projects. The following well-known people are scheduled to speak during our conference:

• Rasmus Lerdorf, Original author of the PHP scripting language,
• David Axmark, Co-Founder and Vice President of MySQL AB,
• Johan Janssens, PHP Developer in the Joomla! team.

We hope to learn from them and each other and that this will be reflected in our data model and code. We will post more updates during the conference itself on drupal.org. It looks like we are heading for a very exciting time in Amsterdam!
