TechED 2008 IT in Orlando

I am just back from a week on the BizTalk Stand at TechED IT in Orlando, it was great to have the opportunity to chat to so many great people and to meet other BizTalkers.

I was privileged to meet some great people to name but a few

Mark Beckner author of the classic Apress BizTalk 2006 EDI book.

Todd VanNurden co editor of the legendary BizTalk Hotrod

Clint Huffman Microsoft PFE

Winston Woo

Ofer Ashkenazi , BizTalk Product Manager

Tim Wieman , BizTalk Ranger Team ( cool team name )

and great thanks to Michael Iem (Ziem Group Inc) who made the week go like clockwork.

Ewan Fairweather and Petr Kratochvil  announced the BizTalk Performance Guide , it is an essential read for any BizTalk project.

Despite daily thunderstorms and flying back on Friday the 13th , it was amazing fun , especially the Simpsons Ride @ universal  :)
