SHARE in Austin is a little more than 5 weeks away. It's that time again to put the call out for session chairs. The list of sessions, in time sequence, is below.

A session chair meets and introduces the speaker, gets to make a really cool speech, counts session attendees, keeps general order and collects session evaluation forms at the end of the session.

Feel free to sign up for any sessions you think you may plan to attend.

To go along with the SHARE themes, one of which is Total Enterprise Virtualization, the Linux and VM Program is featured prominently in a new Virtualization theme room with a separate set of sessions. These sessions are listed along with the sessions below with a V after the session number. We ask that there be two chairs for each of these sessions.
