I’ll be presenting about Slack (the open sourced tool kit we use for deployment software configuration) at the MySQL user’s conference in Santa Clara in late April.

That’s one way of doing it…
Does anyone else think it’s kind of creepy that you need a secret code to submit paper proposals for Microsoft’s TechEd conference? Cause I sure do. I guess that explains why there aren’t many community sessions at TechEd.
