(Wednesday June 27 is reserved for VM Workshop planning committee meetings; if you are interested in planning, please *do* join the committee.) WHY: Previous VM Workshops have been referred to by the small-minded as: 'a large number of system programmers with some limited adult supervision' (do you _really_ want to miss this!??). Expect another wonderful "up close and personal" workshop with great content and terrific camaraderie. Come to meet VM old-timers... and *future* VM old-timers while learning the latest technical z/VM and Linux for System z details. Don't know where to start with Linux on System z? This is a great place to start! PRICE: Unchanged from last year, ** ONLY $100 per attendee**. The best bargain out there for VM and Linux on System z education, and reasonable for anyone paying their own way. MEALS **INCLUDED** in the registration fee (how can you go wrong with all this included!!?): - BREAKFAST Thursday - LUNCH Thursday - DINNER and Reception, and VM 40th Birthday Party (with cake, of course!) at the nearby Hyatt Hotel (free shuttle van provided) - BREAKFAST Thursday - LUNCH Thursday - DINNER Friday (for those not choosing go into town, exploring what beautiful downtown Lexington has to offer) - BREAKFAST Saturday - LUNCH Saturday HOW: Registration is now LIVE, please check it out soon! (Live servers are standing by to take your registration!) Advice: onsite registration is not likely, and will involve additional fees to the university, so register now! As encouragement to register soon: EVERYONE REGISTERED BY **JUNE 1ST** WILL BE GUARANTEED THEIR VERY OWN EXCLUSIVE "VM WORKSHOP" **POLO SHIRT** up to size 4X (not another cheap T-shirt given away at those "higher-priced" conferences). :-)~ PARTICIPATE: Compete in the infamous "Ugly Hawaiian Shirt" contest for a chance to win a treasured, but ugly prize! (B.Y.O.U.H.S.) If you have a cool tool or other procedure that you developed, please consider sharing it by filling in either (or both!) - a VM Workshop session submission form at http://www.vmworkshop.org/2012/presenters - a VM Workshop tools submission form at http://www.vmworkshop.org/tools/submit-a-tool Tools will be published to vmworkshop.org ASAP. The VM Workshop began as a way for VM systems programmers to share what they do at their sites, what tools they had written, and what they had learned... let's stay on that track of mostly USER-PRESENTED sessions. Don't have enough to fill an hour? No problem... submit the idea (or multiple ones!) and the committee will merge multiple shorter presentations in to full hour sessions. Don't be shy, we're all your z/VM and Linux on System z **friends** - no 'flaming' is tolerated. Place this on your calendars and please join us at the University of Kentucky. Don't miss this fun (and learning) event! This e-mail was sent on behalf of the 2012 VM Workshop planning committee.
