The Drupal project will have a booth at Hostingcon, August 10-12th, in Washington, DC. This is the second year we will be at hostingcon meeting with members of the Drupal community and talking to hosting providers. The booth will be staffed by Eric Mandel, from Blackmesh hosting, members of the DC Drupal community, and Drupal hosting providers.

Hostingcon provides the Drupal community a great opportunity to help educate hosting providers about Drupal's popularity. Exciting web applications like Drupal, help drive hosting sales, so providers are eager to learn about what Drupal can do. The event also provides the Drupal community an opportunity to educate system administrators about Drupal hosting best practices such as security, performance tuning, scalability, and high availability.

We will also be doing a special 30 minute presentation in the presentation theater, on the expo floor. If you would like to attend that presentation or other Hostingcon sessions you can get a special discount on early bird registration using the code "Drupal2009". Early bird registration ends tomorrow. You can read about the Keynotes and Sessions here.
