Urg. Early mornings. Up early for a 7 am partner breakfast. Roadmap, vision, feedback and comments from our reseller and channel partners.

The most common request – “give us early access to code” – we’re working on it right now.

Also gave my first session of the week – ZENworks Linux Management Best Practices – seems like this is the week of AV problems – one of the video feeds failed on me.

Writing this sitting in the tech lab with Naresh and Jose from the ZLM engineering team – talking about the keynote.

.. Later

It’s almost 9pm – and we’ve hopefully done the final run for the Wednesday Keynote.

BrainShare 2005 – Monday 21 March

The keynote was a success – our demos worked well and my photo even got on the official Novell press kit. We had a minor glitch with the AV feed – the word is that the splitter box power failed. Typical!

Reports have it that the scooter was on one wheel as I cornered – it certainly felt as if I was about to run over a couple of Novell VPs 🙂 Nice to see the photos posted on novell.com

Much of the rest of the day spent giving press interviews – including Dave Kearns – then more preperation and rehearsal for the Wednesday keynote.

Sunday morning – and I’m in Monday keynote rehersals. BrainShare is about to start.

I will be posting photos and comments from BrainShare during the week.

The scooter came plastered with a strong warning (clicky for big):

1. Read the all manual carefully before operations.
2. Easily slide forward brakingin high speed
3. Centerof gravity should be retrusive when downgrade.
4. Center of gravity should be retrusive when braking and riders are better to went down.
5. Center of gravity should be moving rightwards when turn righ t, and moveing leftwards when turn left.

It was a late night. Lots of rehearsals and testing for the keynote.

Downtown SLC looks great – lots of Novell BrainShare banners everywhere; it’s also starting to fill up with people.
