TechEd 2006 approaches...it's going to be a busy week. I hope I'll see you there!
Here's what I've got in the hopper...I've added a second session, this time with Keith Pleas.
- Sunday All Day: TechEd Pre-Conference Seminar - Architecture. If you're at TechEd on Sunday, come to the Architecture PreCon hosted by Ron Jacobs. I'll be interviewed by Ron on various subjects from 3:00 PM - 3:45 PM. Be sure to check out David Ing's talks in the afternoon!
- Monday Morning: Book Signing 10:30 AM Conference Bookstore: How dorky is this? If you're a nerd and want another nerd to sign books that also double as a booster seat, I'll be at the Conference Bookstore along with the authors of ASP.NET MVP Hacks lowering the value of your purchase with a sharpie!
- Monday Evening: INETA: I'll be at BeanTown.NET on Monday June 12, 2006, 5:30 – 7:30pm at Adesso Systems, One Liberty Square, 7th Floor, Boston, MA (directions) if you want a break from TechEd and want to eat pizza with nerds and talk tools. We're going to (attempt to) tape this session with Camtasia and post it on the Wrox/Wiley site.
- Tuesday Afternoon: ARC310 Dirty SOAP: A Dynamic Endpoint without ASMX - How and Why?
Day/Time: Tuesday, June 13 4:30 PM - 5:45 PM Room: 257 AB
Speaker(s): Patrick Cauldwell, Scott Hanselman
Not every large system in the wild can use .NET 2.0, ASMX and "Indigo". Often the real world isn't very pretty, or formal use of .NET ASMX Web Services doesn't lend itself to a particular solution. Corillian's software handles a quarter of the nation's retail banking online population with .NET. The system is built with a contract-first approach using WSDL and a custom binding to generate in-process service proxies. When it came time for Corillian to present their Operations as SOAP, we created a dynamic endpoint - WITHOUT ASMX. We then extended it to support POX (Plain Old XML). In this session, we discuss the architectural and design ramifications of managing a dynamic endpoint and how this decision will positively or negatively affect our move to WCF.
Track(s): Architecture - Session Type(s): Breakout Session -Session Level(s): 300 - Tuesday Night: John Lam and I are hosting a Birds of a Feather, thanks to Stuart Celarier, at TechEd on Ruby and .NET on Tuesday, June 13 at 9:00 PM. What a nice way to end the day!
- Wednesday Morning: DasBlog Roadmap 10:00 AM -11:30 AM) at the WCF/Connected Systems lounge/cabana/whatever-they-call-it-this-time. We'll be talking Roadmap on the 2.0 version of DasBlog. We may just change the name of DasBlog to WTF and subsume all the W*F Microsoft Frameworks. It could totally happen.
- Thursday Morning: ARC216 Deploying and Managing Your Own Enterprise Framework
Day/Time: Thursday, June 15 8:00 AM - 9:15 AM Room: 160 ABC
Speaker(s): Scott Hanselman, Keith Pleas
Looking at deploying your own enterprise framework? What are some of the things you should watch out for? Come to this session to get some advice on ways to deploy and manage your own enterprise framework. We look at issues with versioning in the various tiers as well as dealing with multi-tenancy and the versioning issues it creates. We also cover managing and operating applications based on your enterprise framework, with an emphasis on designing a health model and enabling health monitoring.
Track(s): Architecture - Session Type(s): Breakout Session - Session Level(s): 200 - Thursday Morning: Fly Away!
- All Week: One other thing, I'll be wandering around with my microphone and recorder taping micro-minutes for a TechEd podcast in two weeks.
Whew! What the heck was I thinking!

Looking forward to seeing you next week, Scott. That booksigning Monday morning is actually at the conference bookstore though (Level 1, near the entrance by the taxi stand, between the escalators). Folks are welcome to stop by the Wrox booth afterwards (booth 630, not far from the Massage Lounge) and chat with editors or pick up some Wrox swag.
I'll give one of my legs to be able to come to your spech. If you are in SoCal anytime let us know.

I attended and enjoyed your TechEd session 'Deploying and Managing Your Own Enterprise Framework'. Unfortunately the slide deck for the session is not available from the TechEd site. Would you consider posting it on this site? You made some interesting points that I would like to discuss with my peers at work.

Wish I could join you, but it's a tough sell when I've already got my management talked into CTAB twice a year! ;)
