PDC And Tech-Ed Wrap-Up

(It might seem a bit late for this, but, lately, I’ve been having a lot on my mind. So here it goes.)

This was my first PDC. It was just as I had been told.

For those who don’t know, the PDC is all about the future. The near future (.NET 4.0 and Windows 7) and the further future (Windows Azure, “Oslo”, “Dublin”, “Geneva”).

Next year’s PDC (Yes! Apparently, there’ll be one next year) will be also held in Los Angeles from November 17 to 20, and (I suspect) will be the commercial launch of the Azure Services Platform and a better story to tell about “Oslo”.

Tech-ED EMEA Developers, on the other hand, is more about the present and the near future. But, this year, attendees were able to have a sneak peek at what had bee shown at the PDC.

Next year’s Tech-ED EMEA Developers will be held in Berlin from November 2 to 6. Probably, like in 2006, it will be the launch of .NET 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010.

And I intend to attend both.
