Read moreDrupal nominated as Best Business Application in LinuxWorld Product Excellence Awards
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,

#drupal-groups Has been launched on IRC
To help group organizers meet eachother and share their knowledge, tips & ticks for organizing and motivating drupal groups i've launched a new drupal irc channel #drupal-groups.
I encourage everyone to join this channel to discuss how to improve user participation in drupal groups and other helpful information.
I strongly encourage group members to join in on the discussion because group organizers are doing this for YOU. Having your feedback on various issues will help us greatly improve different aspects of the group that matter to you most.
SEE YOU THERE!
