Just wanted to say I really had a great time last week at MWLUG.
I am not sure who all was involved in getting the entire thing all set up but I am sure it was many people and I am sure it took quite a bit of time and effort so…THANK YOU!
Richard Moy was front and center so he obviously had a big hand in everything. Jeff Tujetsch from Sherpa Software did a great job pitching Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh…yeah, you should go sometime. I had not been there in at least 25 years and that city is beautiful and very approachable. The conference hotel was awesome and downtown seemed pretty fun.
A big thanks to all of the MWLUG sponsors. Buy things from them if you can and need what they do. These sponsors at LUGs have become our community’s lifeblood when it comes to making sure these events happen.
I had the pleasure of having lunch Friday with Jeremy Hodge, Brian Moore, Paul Calhoun, Roy Rumaner, Declan Lynch, David Leedy, Devin Olson, Mike McGarel…seems like I am missing someone…
What a great bunch of people to chat about XPages! Wow!
I missed Julian Robichaux’s OAuth presentation though because I had to leave early and I didn’t get to see Kim Greene or Amy Hoerle speak either because I was in Dev sessions all the time (they are Admin-folk after all you know!) Bummer. Too much good stuff and too little time.
Next year MWLUG is in Indianapolis and apparently, Sam Bridegroom, (sarcastic movie quote alert) “personal friend of mine,” apparently has taken on the task of putting together next year’s event DATES TBD. Mark your calendars now!
Pretty much I am in awe of everyone I meet at these conferences but I think I am getting the hang of this whole social thing. Not social business…just being social. Well, trying to anyway. It’s fun!
Russ,
I was glad you were able to make it and enjoy many of the activities that MWLUG had to offer. It is speakers like yourself who donate their time and knowledge that is the key to the success of MWLUG and other LUGs. Though I handle many things, MWLUG take over 20 volunteers to make it happen behind the scenes.
Your session was one that I had plan to attend, but problems came up so I missed it. If possible, maybe you can present it at GRANITE.
The dates for MWLUG 2013 at this point needs to be changed because of two massive conventions that are going on in Indianapolis during that week. Stay tune for the new dates and new format for MWLUG 2013.
Thanks Richard. Is there a public list of all of the people? It would be nice to list them al if possible.
New Indy dates…updating post now.
Russ,
Posted a list of people involved in making MWLUG possible on my blog dominointerface.com
That is quite a list Richard. Thanks for posting that. FYI, I tried three different browsers and was unable to post a comment. Could not even get a box to appear to enter into after clicking the link.
