Our topic last week was VMworld 2009, and specifically the VMworld 2009 Call for Papers that was recently announced, with more detail on how the process works and what kinds of proposals are most likely to be accepted. As always, listen via the widget to the right, the mp3, or on iTunes.
We also found out a few tidbits, such as
- The open room of self-paced labs that were so popular at VMworld Europe will also be appearing at VMworld 2009 in Moscone Center.
- For the instructor-led labs, the limit of two per person will remain. Note that these labs will be open Monday (normally Partner/Virtualization 101 day), so that might be a good time to get into your lab of choice. (If you don't get into the labs you want, I also recommend trying to get on wait lists on the last day, Thursday, when the show has slowed a bit and people have started to leave.) The instructor-led labs have been pushed out to the Marriott across the street, which will hopefully free up a bit of room for people in the main hall.)
And we talked about some random links at the end: ESX Overclocking (note the purported release date) and Twitter Plug-in for VI Client.
We'll be back again, as we always are every week, this Wednesday (which is probably today for most of you reading this) at noon PDT / 3pm EDT / 7pm GMT. Note that the US is already on summer time, while the rest of the world has not changed yet, so don't be surprised! Come on over to VMware Communities Roundtable Podcast page on TalkShoe and click through to listen and chat. This week we have an "Open Topic" Roundtable where we talk about the virtualizaton news and blog posts that have caught our attention during the week – I have no idea what we'll talk about, so you'll just have to come on by and see what happens!
