Drupal has been nominated as one of the three best business applications for the LinuxWorld product Excellence Awards. Starting tomorrow, the judges will be visiting the Drupal booth at LinuxWorld to take a look at Drupal and see how it helps businesses. We were up against a lot of competition and it's great to be nominated in such a competitive field.
Thanks to the booth sponsors HaloSys, Gravitek Labs, AF83, and Acquia for funding the booth in the product section of the expo.
Cheers,
Kieran

Awesome!
So, I guess we'll use the Top 10 for our unified talking points? (http://acquia.com/drupal-event-organizer-kit) :-)
I'll print out color copies but I'm not sure I can get them laminated in time. Anything we want to focus on in particular "for business"?

Whoops sorry. I've got the Drupal top 10 laminated and print outs for a very select few who we really want to sell on Drupal or are sure they are about to make a CMS decision.

Different Skews
I just took at look at the competition:
http://www.xtuple.com/
http://www.concursive.com/
They seem to be a very different skew than Drupal. I suppose that they are more along the lines of the Acquia projects?
Where I work, Emotiv Systems (http://emotiv.com) we're very close to rolling out our developer community site using Drupal 6.x and a few contributed modules. I'd be happy to share why we went that way with the passers-bye... Mostly cost and my personal desire to get familiar with this great toolbox! Honestly, I'm still amazed at what you get "out of the box" for free with Drupal.
See you tomorrow morning.
