I want to thank Razzak for a great two days of valuable information this weekend in Monroeville. I learned a lot of tricks that I was missing - there are a lot of incremental improvements that continually enhance the product that I'm sure a lot of us miss in the normal course of business. The SAT opened a lot of doors to improve my programming skills (if you could call it that....!).
Thanks for the encouraging words, Bob! You are very kind. Honestly, I had more fun sharing the knowledge and power of R:BASE in two days than you can imagine. Now all you have to do is to keep up with the material and all goodies and make sure to download the upcoming updates of R:BASE 7.6, Turbo V-8, and SAT Sample Applications, to be available on December 29, 2008. http://www.rupdates.com/SAT2008/
Driving in on the turnpike in a snow/sleet storm was very...exciting. This must be why the developers conference isn't held in December!
Now you know exactly why we prefer the month of October for our annual developers' conference. The 2009 Annual Developers' Conference might move up to the month of August. We will certainly keep you all posted.
But it was worth it to also see Razzak, Donna, and Rafee present the check to Project Bundle-up on live TV - over $15,000!
Having been involved with Salvation Army's Project Bundle-Up for 23 years and being the Co-Chairman as well as the member of the Advisory Board is an honor and privilege for me and my family. http://www.projectbundleup.com/telethon_2008/WTAE_TV_PBU_Telethon.jpg Salvation Army's Project Bundle-Up does a GREAT job to help keep less fortunate children and seniors warm during the cold winter season here in Western Pennsylvania. My sincere thanks to all 10th Anniversary Conference attendees and volunteers for their generous donations to raise $4,309.45 for my preferred charity, Project Bundle-Up!
Once again, thanks for a good meeting.
Thank you and a great holiday season to you and yours. Stay warm. Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
