This is the bi-annual call for session chairs for the upcoming SHARE conference. If you have never heard of SHARE, it is a "user group" type of organization made up of companies with an interest in IBM technology. (See http://www.share.org ) There are two major conferences a year, one in the winter and one in the summer. The next one takes place in the Big Apple (NYC) Aug. 15-20.
SHARE is primarily a volunteer organization. One of the most active programs has been the Linux and VM Program, headed by our esteemed leader, Marty Zimelis. The group has put together a really great program of training and information on Linux and/or VM for this conference. The schedule of sessions is now available on the web site, so check it out. All of us working to create and present the L&VM Program are volunteers. We do the organizing, recruiting of speakers and actually do a lot of the presentations too. One thing we try to do is encourage other people to help out too. So, if you have been to SHARE a couple of times and wondered how you could join in the fun, I have a great opportunity for you! Become a session chair person!!!! It's not hard and the job only lasts for about 1 hour. A chair person simply makes sure that the session starts and finishes on time, that all attendees get a hand out and that the speaker has all that she/he needs to do the presentation. Even if you have never attended SHARE before, it's no problem. We'll show you the ropes and make you an expert chair person in no time. Even better, all NEW volunteers will get their very own picture of my three feline roommates. (Hey, if you volunteer for all the sessions, you can HAVE one of my cats...%-)....Gee, I hope they haven't learned how to turn on the computer and read email yet...) So, if you are already coming to SHARE and plan on attending sessions in the Linux and VM Program, please sign up to chair a few. Its a great way to participate and guarentees you a great seat. I'll include the current list of available sessions at the end of this note. Please see the SHARE web site for more detailed information on each session, as I can't fit speakers, etc. in one note. If you have any questions, please drop me a note off-list.
