Joomla! Day France 2008

The French Joomla! community is excited to announce their second annual Joomla! Day France scheduled for Sunday, April 27, 2008, in Paris, France, the most beautiful city in the world. Joomla! Days are a great opportunity to learn, share and network with other Joomla! users and developers, and to discover ways to contribute to the Joomla! project.

This year's program features Michelle Bisson, Joomla! Core Team Member, who will travel from her Quebec home to discuss the Joomla! project, working group roles and responsibilities, and how our international community has worked together in order to build Joomla! into one of the greatest open source content management systems in the world.

Vote for Drupal, the best Open Source CMS

Last year our beloved CMS was the overall winner of the Webware 100 Awards. By winning the competition, the Drupal Association got 5,000 Dollars that was used for amongst others funding Drupal Conferences and to buy hardware for hosting the Drupal infrastructure. But even better than the money, Drupal got more airtime and more and more people recognized the power of Drupal.

This year, Drupal was once again nominated in the category "Publishing" and you are encouraged to vote on Drupal to make sure we win again this year. Please help by spreading the word and vote, you deserve it!
