ODTUG Kscope 11: Tools Tools Tools v2.0

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the cool Sunday Symposium I have been allowed to put together for KScope11.

Well, someone had to back out. I won't mention names, but they didn't really verify the time and dates. Said person had the audacity to take a vacation!

I wasn't going to name names, but I will, it's Jeff Smith, aka @HillbillyToad.

I'm not really mad (just don't tell him, I like to keep him on his toes). I like Jeff's presentation style a lot, he came down and spoke to our user group about a year ago. He makes me almost want to use Toad. Almost.

Anyway, since he couldn't speak, I had to find another speaker.

Hmmm...

Ideas?

Wait, I heard there was a big name attending last week didn't I?

That's right, none other than Mr. Thomas Kyte.

Maybe he would "fill in" for Jeff?

As is my mantra, the worst thing anyone can say is "No."

So I asked, and he accepted (and I must find a gift for his wife...).



So to recap:

Cary Millsap will be kind of a facilitator. Kris Rice will be speaking twice. Robyn Sands, Sten Vesterli, Sue Harper, Marc de Oliviera and finally the Dominic Delmolino. Wow. It's gonna be a great day!
