Please join as at the 2010 global summit for the Professional Association for SQL
Server in Seattle. The conference is the second week in November at the Washington
State Convention Center. The PASS Global Summit is one of the best technical
conferences and the absolutely best place to go to unite with the SQL Server community.
Please Attend My Session
My session on “Cooking
With Reporting Services” is schedule for Wednesday, November 10th at 1:30 PM local
time. This will be the fourth time I’ve presented a conference session with
this title. Some of the material will be new and some of the demos will be drawn
from our Wrox Press Book: SQL Server Reporting Services Recipes for Designing Expert
Reports.
Birds of a Feather: Lunch Time with the SQL Server MVPs
The Birds of a Feather lunch time event on Tuesday, November 9th will give attendees
the opportunity to sit down and chat one-on-one with Microsoft SQL Server MVPs and
focus on a variety of subjects. Mike Walsh and Jason Strate have graciously
organized the BoF event this year. View
the complete event description on Mike’s blog. “How do I attend?” you might
ask. Easy… just show up – but get there early. For those who plan ahead,
you’ll be able to choose your most pressing topic and chat with the expert.
For those who get there late, it can become a game of musical tables. When an
MVP’s table fills up and there’s no more room, you’ll have to move on.
Here are all the BoF assignments this year.
