Developer Day Scotland 2010

Developer Day Scotland 2010 will be on Saturday 8th May 2010 at Glasgow Caledonian University. The call for speakers has now opened, so if you would like to submit a session then please go to the website and submit your proposal. Alternatively, you can see what’s already been proposed, or you may wish to learn about a specific topic, in which case you can request a session.

SQL Bits V – Session Voting Open

If you are thinking about going to SQL Bits V, here’s your chance to influence the agenda.

This is just a quick note to tell you that voting is now open for SQLBits V. If you go to http://www.sqlbits.com/information/PublicSessions.aspx (making sure you’re logged into the site) you’ll be able to pick the ten sessions that you most want to see, and the top-rated sessions will make it onto the agenda. You aren’t obliged to vote, and if you vote for a session you aren’t obliged to attend it on the day, but voting will help us work out what topics you’re interested in.

We’d also like to point out that our ‘mug shot’ competition is closing on September 28th. If you’d like to win free entry to the training day of your choice on Thursday November 19th, free entry to the 2008/R2 day on Friday November 20th and free hotel accommodation on the Thursday and Friday nights, all you need to do is upload a photo of you and your SQLBits mug in an unlikely (but safe-for-work) situation. More details here: http://www.sqlbits.com/Competition.aspx
