Absolutely! We already expected to have meta-tracks; essentially one room of the Enterprise development resources, one room of Server technologies, one room of Cloud - NoSQL - Persistence etc etc. Whoops - there went all the rooms :) > I'm guessing that some of our projects have already initiated their own track > programs.

This means there's an opportunity to choose the strongest programming, and also probably highlights an opportunity for a meetup for the more obscure or less focused talk ideas. > If I've left out any projects who you think might be interested in > participating, please feel free to pass this along... We trust you are offering to be the liason/coordinator for these 'assorted' track days? :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
