MySQL will be flying Jay Pipes (North American Community Relations Manager at MySQL) in to Salt Lake on the 14th for the sole purpose of addressing PLUG (and all other local SIGs). Please spread the word. Set your calendars. Blog it. Spread it. Tell everyone. To be clear: THIS WILL BE AN IN-DEPTH TECHNICAL PRESENTATION. Expect this to be one of those killer, mind-bending, and deep technical presentations. The kind that leaves you barley able to drive home. Jay will keep the presentation as language agnostic as possible - and focus just on the SQL-fu Jay specializes in. This is one presentation you don't want to miss. There will be prizes (books and MySQL swag). And we will have drinks. There might be food, but don't plan on it. His bio: Jay Pipes is the North American Community Relations Manager at MySQL. Co-author of Pro MySQL (Apress, 2005), Jay has also written articles for Linux Magazine and regularly assists software developers in identifying how to make the most effective use of MySQL. He has given sessions on performance tuning at the MySQL Users Conference, RedHat Summit, NY PHP Conference, OSCON, and Ohio LinuxFest, amongst others. He lives in Columbus, Ohio, with his wife, Julie, and his four animals. In his abundant free time, when not being pestered by his two needy cats and two noisy dogs, he daydreams in PHP code and ponders the ramifications of __clone(). -Ryan --- Books we have to give away: - A book regarding Fedora. - A "Head First" book from O'Reilly on SQL. - Several very excellent "Pragmatic Programmers" books: - Programming Ruby (very good) - Java to Ruby - Enterprise Integration with Ruby - Agile Web Development with Rails - Agile Retrospectives - Practices of an Agile Developer /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
