Done it! Booked my seat for the PDC 2005 in September. You can get an early discount until July 15th and as MVP you even get a bigger discount than the early bird one. I am really looking forward to PDC since I know that there will be a lot of new SharePoint/Office 12 revelations. As Fitz always says: 'PDC is the time that we release the flood gates on all of this'. And believe me (as one of the lucky ones :-)), it is going to be an amazing year starting from PDC for all of you doing IW stuff.

Here is a preview of the sessions in the IW track:

  • What's New in "Office 12" and Windows SharePoint Services "v3"
