Maastricht, DrupalTown 2009?

What made Szeged a very good place for the EU DrupalCon? Not the fact that it was a 2 hour train ride from the airport. Not the fact that it was in Hungary, DrupalCountry, region 4, language 2 on Google Trends. But the fact that is was a nice warm small town, you could walk almost everywhere, the fact that 1/3 of the population is younger then 25, the fact there was a nice festival happening, the fact that every 100 meters you could spot a Drupal nerd: the fact that a town could become a Drupal Town!

If you live in the Netherlands and want to make sure that the next DrupalCon EU edition will be as good, make sure you join our effort to let Maastricht become DrupalTown 2009! See our Drupal Nederland group posting "DrupalCon Maastricht 2009"

Maastricht is located in the south of the Netherlands, close to Germany and Belgium. It is a nice old town, see the wiki entry, not too big and with a young population.

If you are from Germany, Belgium or The Netherlands, please help us out to nominate Maastricht to the Drupal Association by raising your hand in this node!

DrupalCon Netherlands!

I'm half way around the globe- but let me know if there's anything I can do to help push this forward. DrupalCon in the Netherlands would be so friggin awesome, I can barely keep my head from popping. France and Germany are fine, but come on, they just can't compete with the Dutch mojo!

love it

Maastricht is a really cool town, and it's less than 2 hour drive from where I live in Belgium. So I will be pretty near...

We might be able to get our team in (from Hungary) to do the video coverage...

Drupal Cruise?

keeping all the drupalers together would be easiest..on a ship. geek cruises are very popular for that reason, why not a drupal cruise? maybe in the year after maastricht?
