If you are new to System z, or new one or more of the operating systems
that runs on System z, this is an ideal place to begin with the basics.

If you are an experienced System z professional, you can use
your time this week to update your skills and to learn
about the new levels of  z/OS V1.10, z/VM V5.4, z/VSE 4.2.
You can also hear customer experiences of Linux on z/VM.

 * The keynote presenter is Karl Freund,  IBM VP Systems z Marketing
   and Strategy, IBM Systems Group.
 * IBM Fellow, Mike Cowlishaw, will be presenting on his project on
   Decimal Arithmetic on System z.
 * Presenters from the System z community including
   IBM developers, customers and ISVs.
   Their names may look familiar to you from listserv discussions
   and user groups, but then you might also seeing  some new faces
   (next gen'ers).

The format includes both stand-up lectures and hands-on labs.
There's also time for networking and learning about ISV solutions
at the Solutions Expo on Mon/Tues evenings and Tues/Wed lunch times.

Here's the agenda grid as of last week (watch the wrap):

And here's the abstracts file:

We know that many of you have to cover multiple tracks/topics
during the week so we are also running the early morning (8 AM)
guilt-free sessions in the z/VM, z/VSE, and Linux tracks.
(Guilt free?  They're not up against z/OS or System z general topics.)

We look forward to seeing you at the System z Expo.   Please
stop by the IBM booth to say hello.
