Even though we are all currently very excited about DrupalCon Boston 2008 the Drupal Association is planning ahead to help coordinate the following DrupalCon for the Fall/Winter of 2008 in Europe. We mention Europe specifically since that has become a bit of a tradition, but if anyone would like to organize a conference in another location please draft and submit a proposal.

Request for Proposals

The Drupal Association is currently requesting proposals from aspiring DrupalCon organizers for the 2008 DrupalCon Europe. If you would like to organize a DrupalCon in your country please contact the association and submit a proposal that meets the criteria of the DrupalCon proposal guidelines

You are also welcome to comment below but please keep the conversation in regards to DrupalCon Europe.

Events such as DrupalCamps, DrupalJams, meetups etc. are self organized and do not require approval by the association.

The association will be meeting March 5th, at DrupalCon North America, to review and decide on a location for DrupalCon Europe; which is to be held in the Fall/Winter of 2008. By deciding the next DrupalCon at this early date we hope to give the organizers and participants enough time to make DrupalCon Europe 2008 the best DrupalCon ever...

This is a followup to the original request for proposals sent out in November. This post is to inform potential conference organizers about the upcoming deadline. If you've been thinking about putting together a proposal now is the time to get organized and submit it.

DrupalCons of 2009 and beyond

Similarly, if you are thinking of organizing a conference for 2009 please begin the planning process. Each DrupalCon has grown by almost double. In order to plan an event of that size for 2009 it will require the organizers to begin their work earlier and earlier.
