SD Best Practices Conference in Boston, Tuesday 9/12/2006

Anyone going to the SD Best Practices Conference in Boston next week?  I'm heading down to Boston for Tuesday's sessions.  I hope to catch Mary Gorman's Event Modeling class, Brian Robertson's Introduction to Holacracy, and Charles Kruger's Introduction to Software Product Line Development Methods.  As I've mentioned before, I believe product/asset portfolio management will be essential for SOA and all related mix-and-match architectures.

If you are going to the conference and want to connect, leave me a comment, or send an email bda at elementallinks dot com.

A little help: Looking for Practitioners with ServiceMix, ActiveMQ and/or LogicBlaze Fuse experience

I'm looking to chat with corporate IT practitioners who have experience with Apache ServiceMix, Apache ActiveMQ and/or LogicBlaze's Fuse.  Your experience could be a serious evaluation (win or lose), an active development project, and/or a production implementation. 

I'm doing some work with LogicBlaze, the company behind ServiceMix, ActiveMQ and Fuse, and getting insights from practitioners is crucial.  I'd like to discuss your experience with the products (good and bad) and the fit with your business problem and IT environment.  We can converse via phone, IM (AIM, GTalk) or email.  I will share insights gleaned with LogicBlaze.  I won't pass along names (yours, company) without your consent.

If you can help me out, I'd appreciate it.  Please leave me a comment, or drop an email: bda at elementallinks dot com.
