This will be my first year attending the PASS Summit as a speaker rather than an attendee. I will be joining Rushabh Mehta to present a spotlight session entitled "Building an SSIS Management Framework". The PASS Summit is a great conference that focuses on SQL Server and Business Intelligence. Because it is in Seattle, there will be a ton of people from the SQL Server Developer Team and SQLCAT. If you have any questions about SQL Server, this is the place to be.
You still have a few weeks left to sign up. Solid Quality Mentors is also offering a discount code applicable to the cost of the conference. You can get that code from here: http://www.solidq.com/na/pass.aspx. So now you have no excuse left to not sign up!
I have an exciting week coming up! On Wednesday evening, I will be speaking at the Rockville .NET User Group on SSIS Tips & Tricks for both SQL Server 2005 and 2008. If you're in the area, I hope you'll stop by.
On Friday night, the Northern Virginia Girl Geek Dinner is having their inaugural dinner. Hosting by Viget Labs, sponsorship by Microsoft, and a presentation by Dr. Joanne McGrath Cohoon will make for a great evening! I will be there, helping to ensure everything runs smoothly. The sign up deadline was just extended through Wednesday, so sign up now at http://novagirlgeekdinner.eventbrite.com/!
