Heh, I hitchhiked my way into PDC last year (i.e. offered to do a lot of work in exchange for a ticket in). Took a fair bit of work and WiX wasn't on the official list of anything anywhere. I just wrote some stuff on a whiteboard and spent a lot of time answer questions about it. That was fun.
I'm not exactly sure how to go about getting enough visibility to get a PDC session. Maybe we should start a petition the next time PDC starts making noise (early 2008?). -----Original Message----- From: Joe Kaplan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe Kaplan Sent: Sunday, March 11, 2007 8:00 PM To: Rob Mensching; Peterson, Joel; wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WiX at TechEd 2007? As I recall, they did let you into the last PDC, so maybe this time they'll let you attend and give you a session of some sort. :) I'd love to see WiX at TechEd, but PDC is more developer focused and probably an easier sell than TechEd, which is at least 50% infrastructure/IT Pro stuff. Another thing you can do is apply for a PDC BOF session. Those are at least voted on by the community, so the WiX community could potentially have a say in making it happen. I think it deserves a mainstream session topic though.

This is more for Rob and Bob, but if anyone else has any details I'd love to hear them. It actually crossed my mind to ask this as I was reading Rob's blog on the Designed for Operations Workshop. Is there any details for WiX-related breakout sessions, Birds of a Feather sessions, and/or Technical Learning Center developer availability at TechEd 2007? Thank you.
