I recorded a series of podcasts for Novell Open Audio – the first part of this is now live!
This time round I give some background on ZENworks 7 Linux Management. Still to come – Asset Management, Patching and BrainShare 2006.
Enjoy!

I am Edinburgh for a few days visiting some of our global ZENworks customers.
One thing that I love about visiting customers is seeing how Novell technology is being used. Every customer deployment opens my eyes to the seemingly endless imagination of technical architects and administrators like yourselves. Every large customer deployment is somewhat unique – whether for ZENworks, Novell Identity Manager or any of our technologies.
The other part that makes customer visits so vital, is getting a first hand account of new trends and activities within IT organisations. It is direct interaction like this that helps Product Managers collect requirements for better, innovative products.
I’ll report back on what I find in the next couple of days.

Novell Cool Blogs is live – but very much running live in stealth mode.
Feel free to visit and take a look; over the next few days we’ll get the rest of the community posting – hopefully by then all of the teething troubles will have been ironed out.

Many of you will be familiar with BrainShare – Novell’s annual gathering of customers, partners and channel partners.
One thing that may be news – this year BrainShare will be bigger than ever – the event is now ‘BrainShare Global’ – where people from across the globe will descent on Salt Lake City, Utah for a week of bonding, information gathering, research and fun. As always ZENworks will play a central part in this major event.
I will be blogging frequently in the next few weeks about the run up to the event – but we have keynotes, breakout sessions, Birds of a Feather sessions, hands-on-labs and much, much more.
One event that I encourage every technologist reading to attend – is Meet the Experts. This is a unique chance for you to spend some face-to-face time, in informal surroundings, with the people that make Novell’s products happen. Architects, engineers, support people, testers, localisation engineers, the odd Product Manager – we’ll all be present to let you ask questions. Any questions. No – I mean it – anything! From experience I know that this truly is ‘Meet the Experts’ – and it’s humbling to know that often you are the expert.I’ll give a running commentary of our BrainShare preparations in this blog (and some behind the scenes updates too).

The first part of my Open Audio Podcasts is now live at Novell Open Audio.

A warm welcome to all new Cool Blogs readers – this is a new concept for Novell; but hopefully will follow in the footsteps of Novell Open Audio as being an instant hit with you all.
By way of introduction – and I’ll keep this short – I am Martin Buckley; better known by some as the Evil ZEN Scientist. I have been working with ZENworks at Novell for over six years – predominantly as Product Manager. Yes – I was part of the team that made ZENworks for Desktops 3 and all subsequent releases arrive on your desks.
Prior to Novell I was working in various consulting roles in the United Kingdom implementing many different systems management products into customers – remember ManageWise? Standalone NetWare Application Launcher (now a core part of ZENworks)?
I have been blogging for a good while now – mainly around technology, systems management trend and the rise of corporate blogging.
