Today is the last Friday of July, making it SysAdminDay, when we show appreciation for all the hardworking, oft-under-appreciated sysadmins who make our new economy hum along like a well-tuned machine.

Here at pingVision we have several people who serve in the sysadmin role. Our heavy lifter is Andy Lasda, who has scripted our deployments and been involved in most all of our hosting environment setups and performance tuning.

Andy Kirkham is another expert sysadmin in our ranks. Between the two Andys, there's no solvable problem they cannot solve. Yes, you can say "rubbish" and dismiss it as mere enthusiasm, but in this case I think I'm right.

DrupalCamp Colorado 2008, happening in Denver, is less than two weeks away, but it's still not too late to submit your session proposal.

It's also not too late to register.

As one of many sponsors of DrupalCamp Colorado*, we hope to see a full house of both the new Drupalers out there as well as the experienced veterans. There are going to host a mix of sessions and BOF's geared towards all areas of interest ... or at least your interests, if you get your session proposal in! (No pressure.)

While the search continues for location of this July's planned DrupalCamp Colorado, submissions are now open for proposed logos at http://drupalcampcolorado.org.

Designers, work your GIMP out, sharpen your Illustrator, spark your Fireworks or uncap your Photoshop (whew!) and work up a submission that represent Colorado Drupallers to the world!

Submission guidelines are here: http://drupalcampcolorado.org/content/lo...
