With SHARE in San Jose about 5 weeks away, it's time to start collecting chairs for sessions.

If you choose to become a session chair, your job is simple but vital. You get to introduce the speaker of the session, mitigate wayward discussions, count attendees, keep time for the speaker and at the end of the session collect the very important session evaluation slips.

Your reward as a session chair will be the satisfaction of helping out at SHARE and the admiration of your fellow attendees.

Following is the list of sessions for the Linux and VM program by session number (please watch the wrap). Feel free to respond to me with the session number that you wish to chair. Responses will be accepted on a first come, first chaired basis.
