Summary: The Scripting Wife reveals the session details for the Charlotte Windows PowerShell Saturday event.
Microsoft Scripting Guy, Ed Wilson, is here. Today I will turn the keyboard over to the lovely Scripting Wife. Teresa, the screen is yours…
Hello fellow PowerShellers! I am so excited to be involved in the planning and co-organizing of PowerShell Saturday #007, which will be held in Charlotte, North Carolina on Feb 8, 2014.
Today I want to share the list of speakers and sessions. Remember, there could be some slight modifications as life happens all around us; but this is a pretty close, if not exact, list of speakers and sessions. Hope to see you in Charlotte.
And before I forget, there are only 75 days remaining before the event. I encourage you to go online and get signed up while this is fresh on your mind, so you do not get left out. We ran out of tickets last year, and you don’t want to be in the sad group that did not get to attend.
Here is the quick list of speakers. For more information, please read their biographies: PowerShell Saturday #007 Speakers.
- Ashley McGlone
- Matt Graeber
- Chris Campbell
- Jason Walker
- Brian Wilhite
- Jim Christopher
- James Adams
- Chris Weaver
- Ed Wilson
- Sean Kearney
- Mark Schill
- Jeremy Engel
- Glenn Sizemore
That is the lineup. Of the 13 speakers, six are Microsoft full-time employees, two are Windows PowerShell MVPs, and the other five guys are just super awesome people.
Now you would like to know what they are going to talk about, right? For a synopsis of their talks, please read PowerShell Saturday #007 Sessions. This site will be updated as we get closer to the event date.
