Kosta Harlan, Developer at DesignHammer, will be attending DrupalCon Chicago, the world's premiere Drupal conference. DrupalCon Chicago will be an international event that brings together people who use, develop, design, and support the Drupal platform. The conference will take place March 7–10, 2011 at the Sheraton Hotel & Towers in Chicago, IL.
