Hacker Cons?
I was hoping you guys would join me in making a list for members here of this years major hacker/security cons. I'm looking at actual cons, not like the one I went to last year where it was just vendors selling projects. So I think we should make a list of US cons with location and date.
Anyone want to contribute?

The three most established CONS that I know of: DefCon, BlackHat and Hope
New and upcoming CON would be like DerbyCon***Freedom of Speech, Just Watch What You Say*** Example, Beware of CompTIA Certs (Deleted From Google Cached)
