Raymond's 2005 MVP Global Summit event diary
In case those coming into town for the
2005 MVP Global Summit were interesting in chatting with me,
here's my event diary for this week.
(Non-native-English-speaking MVPs can hover over the highlighted
words for a translation from slang into "standard American-English".)
- Even though it's not affiliated with the MVP Global Summit,
I'll mention it anyway since it happens the same week:
I'll be at CodeSlam on Tuesday night.
The name is a play on
Poetry Slam, but
instead of reciting poetry, you share your code.
If you're an MVP with a cool app you want to contribute
to CodeGallery,
and you want to be part of the biggest geek
slumber party in Redmond, let me know.
I can bring one guest.
(However, since I am old and decrepit and have a job to go to the
following morning, I probably won't last the whole night.)
- I am trying to
finagle
a ticket to the Windows Shell/User MVP dinner
on Thursday evening.
- If I can't get a ticket to the MVP dinner, I'll definitely
crash
the Windows Shell/User MVP lunch on Friday.
- I'll
pop by
the MVP Barbecue on Saturday to
touch base
with the MVPs in disciplines other than Windows Shell/User.
If you want to be sure to catch me,
drop me a line and I'll try to make time to see you.
Note, however, that I'm doing this outside of my "regular job",
so please be a bit understanding if a work emergency forces
me to do some last-minute rescheduling.
