Session proposals are still being accepted for the next DrupalCon, being held at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, March 19 -23, 2012. The conference theme is "Collaborative Publishing for Every Device" and the deadline to submit sessions is October 26, 201123:59:59 UTC/GMT -7.

DrupalCon Denver will be focusing on 8 significant areas of expertise and of particular interest to Drupal users and developers alike. Preference will be given to session ideas that examine the following tracks and how they relate to the conference theme:

Doug Gough of ImageX Media will be teaching us the basics of creating a Drupal module. Including how to use some of the most common Drupal API hooks, such as hook_user, hook_nodeapi, and form_alter to create a basic module that reacts to changes to user information. He'll also cover how to create a theme function to style the output of the module.
