Directions to the Meeting
Distance from Raleigh (17 miles) / Durham (8 miles) / Chapel Hill (12 miles)
From I-40, take Exit 280 - Davis Drive. At the end of the exit ramp, take a right (North) onto Davis Drive. Continue straight on Davis Drive for about 0.5 miles. Take a right on Cornwallis road. Go about 1/2 mile, you will cross over railroad tracks. At the IBM gate keep to the right.
If the rightmost gate is down, press on the intercom button and tell the remote guard that you are attending the WebSphere User Group meeting, and give him your name. He will open the gate for you. Go through gate, follow the road around past the first Tivoli Building, looking for signs leading to Building 500 or "Software Group." Our IBM host is Greg Ackerman.
Go through gate, follow the road around past the first Tivoli Building, looking for signs leading to Building 500 or "Software Group." It should be the third road on the left. It can be a little tricky, so please allow some extra time the first time.
It can be a little tricky, so please allow some extra time the first time.
You will see a visitors' parking lot. Turn in and park, and walk to the Building 500 lobby.
Be careful not to go too far (the second Tivoli building is too far) or you will find yourself on a one-way exit ramp and have to drive back around.
Might you be interested in helping run the group? If so, you might consider running in the elections this month - you can email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or any of the other addresses listed on the web site.
