Enjoy!

[Homer Shoemaker]

Just received mgmt approval to attend this years Advanced Technical Bootcamp.

I notice the dates are the 18th thru the 23rd. Are there really sessions scheduled for Sunday? If so, what time? I need to make travel arrangements, so I would like to know which day to arrive. I assume the last session will end 5:00 on Friday. Good assumption?

I haven't been able to find the 2008 agenda. Does anybody know if it's available yet?

I'm really looking forward to this.

@Homer:

Yes! In previous years, activity took off at 12:00. I have no reason to assume this year as different.

No. To accomodate transatlantic travelers, (nearly all) activity ends at noon.

Proost.

Have one on me.

For new folks, note that most (all?) sessions are repeated during the week. So those given on Sunday will be repeated again.

I'll be there with my Tilde Concession Stand, 25c each or 5 for 1$.

[Homer Shoemaker]

Jan and John: Thanks.

John: I'll be sure to stop by your stand.

All booked.:-)

I'm due to land at Boston Logan airport terminal E at approx 1pm Saturday 17th May. Anyone else due to be there then? I'm considering options to get to the hotel.

Don't forget to check out the VMS podcast - the latest one has an interview with Nina Buik about the HP user group consolidation

Ian>> I'm considering options to get to the hotel.

Please consider the scheduled public bus service to Nashua.

http://www.concordtrailways.com/boston_express/schedules.htm

It is really a great service for Nashua as a town, and the Boot Camp guests.

The "Boston Express" is great alternative for those travelling on their own nickel or who need to preserve / redirect corporate funds. 1 stop only, at Boston SouthStation, where you can buy a ticket.
$25 round-trip to Nashua exit-6 (NH Welcome Center)

This is a SUPER bus. All conveniences, Great schedule, Comfortable, Personal radio, Modest price.
The (Radison) Tara is willing to shuttle to exit 6. You would need a hotel shuttle (Tara bellMan @ 603 888 9970), taxi, or
a (VMS) friend, to you up at Exit 6.
Fellow bus riders may well be willing to help as well.

hth,
Hein
