Fellow IBM-Main Members-
SHARE in San Jose was a very successful conference with a lot of positive energy generated. Now, it is time to start planning our next SHARE conference in Austin, TX. It will be held at the Austin Convention Center, in Austin, TX, March 1st through March 6th, 2009. The Enterprise Wide Capacity and Performance Project is now soliciting for Sessions. We are actively looking for Abstracts pertaining to Performance, Capacity Planning, Benchmarking, Real World/Customer Experiences, Best Practices, Success Stories, and Simplifying the IT Environment. We will also schedule Sunday Sessions to offer some in-depth Performance and Capacity topics, along with some Vendor-specific presentations. The themes for this Conference will be "Total Enterprise Virtualization", and "Service Orientation- the Foundation for IT Modernization". Sessions on these themes will also be considered. SHARE is an organization that is supported by volunteers. If you'd like the opportunity to share your experience at our next conference, please send your abstract for consideration to Norman Hollander ( <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Tom Halinski ( <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED]) by September 28, 2008. The actually scheduling process will take place at the beginning of October, so please consider volunteering now.
