Well, if it's going to be in Asia, then joe and Dean should set up an AD Dojo or Xaolin temple so they can teach the young grasshoppers how to walk on rice paper without leaving a trace. Or they can continue to strain their relationship with George Lucas :) and set up a real AD Jedi Knight training facility for the up-and-coming Padwans.

Hmmm, trying to figure out how to make the logistics of a Sydney junket work. The European contingent would be flying east via Heathrow/Frankfurt/deGaulle-->Hong Kong-->Sydney or something, while the damn Yankees would fly west via LAX....I suppose we could all meet up in Hong Kong and start from there, but oh -my- would that be an exercise in herding cats. :-) As for what to talk about? It may sound like a cop-out to say "The stuff you talked about in the slide deck", but it's not, really. The people who were dazed by jadonex talking a mile a minute about group caching and app partitions and what not would probably have a big collective "AHA!" Gestalt moment if we rolled up some corresponding VPC exercises where everyone could see the stuff in action. Example: do a lab where you actually get to see the creation of the phantom objects that are managed by the IM, and maybe you get half the room saying "Wow, I've been reading about the IM/GC interaction for 3 years...but never really grokked it until now." That's just a hip-shot first thought, anyway. - Laura On 4/2/06, joe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, Tony should have been there. That was part of my idea about Sydney.
