Well, it is over again. My 7th TechEd Europe was definitely the best one of the seven because I was involved in so many activities and did so many sessions the past week. So I want to thank everybody who made it a great week and experience. It was great to finally be on stage with Ted Patisson for the pre-conf workshop on WSS v3 solutions. After working together on all of the Ascend and TouchDown material, I really enjoyed the sessions we did together. And as one of the attendees reported as feedback 'there is chemistry between Ted and Patrick', we should try to repeat this one time. Thanks buddy. Also thanks to all of the organizers of the different tracks I was involved. I have seen them panicking, getting wild about sessions delivered, getting very disappointed. Maurio and David, good job guys. Hope to work again with you next year on TechEd. Many thinks to all of the Redmond and EMEA people I have met. Fitz.. you were again very entertaining. Same for you Rob. Thanks both. And finally all of my colleagues of U2U who were there 'en mass' this week. Being away almost every week for some gig around the world, it was fun to spend some time with all of you. Thanks also for the support during the week (and the last year). One special thank you to my buddy Jan, Mr. SmartPart, with who I gave the final presentation. It was his first time at TechEd, immediately bombarded with a session but he did a great job with some very entertaining demos. Thanks all. Now it is back to normal life. Travelling and seriously writing on the book!
Here are some pictures I took over the past days. More can be found over here.
