Hi all,
Sorry for delayed reply to these. Just wanted to thank all who
responded. Unfortunately, it looks like this year is still out, but
that doesn't mean I can't continue to benefit from the list! The
philosophical discussions that arise are as good as the technical ones
(obviously referring to the domain admin. thing that keeps coming up)!

Can you at least send a substitute chicken so Gil doesn't have to give
one away and be left alone? ;)
Skis for the chicken would be a bonus.

I doubt my old company would still be willing to foot my bill now that
I'm moving on. I'll have to make it a priority for next year though.

Go figure that after a couple of years of trying to convince someone to
send me to DEC I was about to be sent there this year...but I just got a
new job that is starting on the 14th so I'll miss it again. Go figure!
;)
Have fun at Whistler if you all make it!

To answer Ken's quesiton directly, DEC is the Directory Experts
Conference that NetPro sponsors along with Microsoft and others. It is a
technology conference focused entirely on AD and intimately related
technologies like DNS, ADFS, etc.
The presenters are about a third/a third/a third Microsoft Program
Managers, industry consultants (e.g. HP, EDS), and enterprise Active
Directory customers. The topics are targeted toward technically savvy
engineers, architects, and administrators who have been running AD for a
while, i.e., there are no introductory "This is what an OU is" type
sessions. There are also no product-pitch sessions... the sessions are
all focused on understanding and using AD technology successfully. DEC
is also a great place for networking with the Microsoft product team as
well as other AD technicians.
We've expanded DEC this year to include an MIIS track, which reflects
Microsoft's direction of integrating their various IdM technologies.
Stuart Kwan (Directory of Program Management for Identity and Access at
Microsoft) will be discussing the future of AD, AD/AM, MIIS, ADFS, ID
Card, etc. during the keynote.
Find out more and register at www.netpro.com/events/dec2005.
As far as the ski trip is concerned, they are just rumors. I haven't had
a chance to even think about it. But I know some people are planning to
head off to Whistler after the conference. I'm not sure I'm ready to
give up the Chicken though... :)

I heard a rumor that Gil was organizing a post DEC ski trip to Whistler
and there would be a Chinese Downhill to determine who goes home with
the rubber chicken.

Hi Dave,
This will be my fourth DEC and everyone has been worth it. I think
I
have learned more at this conference than any other I have
attended.
It is very focused, intimate and full of some incredibly
interesting
people who are out there doing it.
The content ranges in complexity but almost all is going to be
accessible if you have been working with AD for years. What helps
at
this show is after the talk you are having conversations with
attendees who can clarify topics based on their own experiences as
well as provide tips on how it may be applicable to your
situation.
Like Joe mentioned the ability to have candid conversations with
people from Microsoft is also incredibly valuable. There are a
slew
of Microsoft people there and they are all focused on Directories
and
surrounding technologies.
The networking outside of the Microsoft people is also a great
value.
Oh yeah, occasionally watching hung over people try to pay
attention
to deep DNS discussions is sort of fun as well <G>. Being a hung
over
person trying to pay attention to deep DNS discussions, well, that
is
not quite as fun!
I hope to see you there.

Hi all,
Hope you don't mind these...
My company has considered the idea of sending a couple of us
to
the conference, but are wondering if they should use our vouchers
to
have us attend some AD troubleshooting workshops [by Microsoft]
instead. While I don't know any specific details as to what that
entails, we've also never been to one of these DECs! Our managers
have asked us to justify in writing what we think we'll get out of
this conference, and if it will prove more worthwhile than the MS
offering (again - sorry that I don't know exactly *what* that is).
Myself? I have 4+ years in a live AD environment, and can
honestly say that some of what I've seen written on this list
zooms
high overhead (!), while other stuff falls right in line, so am
hoping that I would be a good candidate to attend.
I see many testimonials, etc...on the conf. website, so just
hoping to get any brief thoughts from anyone - with many thanks in
advance!
