Ok, I'm in Sydney on Monday, so I'll sit down with MS HQ and work out the details as I've got a great response from one and all whom are interested (great work!)
I'll float some dates past one and all, and you can all vote so that its convieninat for you all. I also had a chat with a dev last night about the post-session support, in that if some of you folks are keen to deep dive further into one of the technology sets, then I'm looking at doing a webcast/live meeting style boot camp approach (As I know it can be frustrating to learn a new technology anyway, and especially if most of you aren't being paid to do it - which time wise can suck). So I'll make sure that's part of the roadmap thereafter if all are happy to keep tracking down that path. So, beers + pizza + softdrink + dessert + schwag coming to a town near you ;) hehehe.
