What a coincidence, we were just talking about “slow moving software” in this morning’s Shiproom….
To reiterate Michael’s comments, our marketing team is working on this, even talking with BradAnd, and as I hear have until 2/27 to publish. The list I’ve seen so far includes three additional sessions specific to ConfigMgr – and we’re doing what we can to get more added. At least one of those will be 300+ level (I’m the content owner – unfortunately just don’t know yet whether I’ll be presenting it…). Honestly, this is all awesome feedback. I’ve shared some of your comments verbatim with marketing and leadership so that they understand your frustrations. I definitely can’t promise that will change anything in the next several months, but I hope helps inform strategy decisions in the future. And please don’t let this put any damper on the discussion – it’s why I’ve been on this list for so many years. ☺ Aaron From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sherry Kissinger Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2015 11:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mssms] RE: (OT) Vendor list for Ignite?

Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager Sent from my Windows Phone From: Rod Trent<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: 2/19/2015 12:13 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [mssms] RE: (OT) Vendor list for Ignite? More will be added for System Center and Server. That much is true. However, when I was told that, I was also told that Configuration Manager is not really considered to be part of System Center any longer. So, don’t expect many more ConfigMgr sessions to post. There’s clear reasons behind this. Also consider that Ignite now uses a sort of aged “editorial calendar” method for sessions. Microsoft has the decks with the proper messaging, and then the Ignite teams will source the speakers they believe fit the decks best. I’ll leave it at that. I almost, *almost*, went off on a soapbox tangent for both preceding paragraphs. But, you all are smart enough to figure it out.

I think you are being a little swift with your assumptions. The full session catalog has not been completed and Ignite has mentioned that they are going to be adding much more to the catalog including System Center stuff. There are quite a few of us from the ConfigMgr community who will be attending the conference. -Harjit On 2/19/2015 11:36 AM, Andreas Hammarskjöld wrote: Hey Ivan, If you are looking for ConfigMgr integration Ignite might not be your best place to hunt. The total lack of ConfigMgr sessions have led to the ConfigMgr community already renamed the conference MS Ignore (for several reasons). Might change, although unlikely, but damage is already done. //A From: mailto:[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Troy Martin Sent: den 19 februari 2015 17:24 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: (OT) Vendor list for Ignite?

I have a colleague in the ITAM space wanting to shop but needs to make sure hunting will be rich. We don’t see a vendor list on the Ignite web site. It would go a long way toward justifying the trip.
