Full online session agenda information will be available very soon.
WHERE:

JUNE 27.
Choose from multiple concurrent presentations packed full of up-to-the-minute
technical sessions for all expertise levels of z/VM, and Linux on System z,
z/VSE, and from Hands-On Labs including:
- z/VM 6.3 SSI Installation or Migration or Upgrade Hands-On Lab,
- Linux for z Systems Installation Hands-On Lab,

- Unlock your z/VSE data and applications for the mobile world Hands-On Lab.
Wednesday June 24 is reserved for VM Workshop Volunteer Committee site
preparation and lab setup; if you are interested in helping, just show and
we'll put you to work! :)
WHY:
Previous VM Workshops have been referred to by the small-minded as: 'a large
number of system programmers with some limited adult supervision' (do you
really want to miss this!??). Expect another wonderful "up close and personal"
workshop with great content and terrific camaraderie. Come to meet VM
old-timers... and *future* z/VM old-timers while learning the latest technical
z/VM and 'Linux on System z' details. Don't know where to start with Linux on
System z? This is a great place to start!
Sessions (so far):
In addition to the hands-on-labs, a PDF list of accepted sessions (suitable for
sharing with managers!) as of this time can be found at:
http://www.vmworkshop.org/node/446
PRICE:
STILL UNCHANGED from the previous four years, ** ONLY $100 per attendee**,
optional dorm rooms with full linens are available as listed above. This is
the best bargain out there for z/VM and 'Linux on z Systems'' education, and is
quite reasonable for anyone paying their own way. On-site parking is available
for $6 per day.
Regular attendees and sponsor attendees: The $100 registration fee for regular
attendees includes: access to all sessions and hands-on labs, a snazzy 2015 VM
Workshop polo shirt (not just a cheap T-shirt like those high-priced
conferences), a Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday evening, and almost all other
meals.
Full-time Students: A $10 registration fee includes: access to all sessions and
hands-on labs, a 2015 VM Workshop T-shirt (sure to become a "must have" at your
campus), and optional ($20) attendance at the Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday
evening.
Spouse attendees: A $0 registration fee provides: an optional means of
purchasing a dorm room bed (priced as described above), and/or optional
attendance at the Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday evening ($35).
HOW:
Registration is now LIVE, please check it out soon... live servers are standing
by to take your registration!
On-site registration will be available (cash or credit), but dorm rooms and
shirts must be ordered by the deadlines listed above.
PARTICIPATE (yourself!):
* Compete in the historical (occasionally hysterical) VM Workshop "Ugly
Hawaiian Shirt" contest for a chance to win a treasured, but ugly prize!
(B.Y.O.U.H.S.)
* The VM Workshop began as a way for VM systems programmers to share...
what they do at their sites, what tools they had written, and what they had
learned... let's return to that track of mostly USER-PRESENTED sessions. Don't
have enough to fill an hour? No problem... submit the idea (or multiple ones!)
at http://www.vmworkshop.org/2015/session and the committee will merge multiple
shorter presentations in to full hour sessions. Don't be shy, we're all your
z/VM and Linux on System z **friends** - no 'flaming' is tolerated.
Place this event on your calendars and please join us at Binghamton University,
Binghamton, NY. Don't miss this incredibly inexpensive, educational, and fun
event!
