So I thought Microsoft did have some news to bring to the table on PDC 2007, but apparently they already announced all of their upcoming news at the MIX07.
So they are postponing their event on the future of the platform to a later date, I am assuming that is at least a year.
Well I have sent most of my training days already, so that kinda comes in handy!
The Microsoft patterns & practices group has released the CTP1 of ESB Guidance on CodePlex. They are targeting final release for September 2007.

Last saturday we had the first dutch code camp. In my opinion it was a great show. I did a presentation together with Entlib Legend Olaf Conijn on Entlib 3.0. You can download the code and the deck here:
I very much liked the Chalk & Talk session from Paul Gielens on Domain Driven Design.
So for me, we should follow this up pretty soon with a new Codecamp....
On a side note, within Avanade we had plans to start up this Codecamp here in The Netherlands. Adam Magee, the aussie who joined us back in December by transferring from Avanade Australia, had great experiences with Codecamps in Waggawagga (yes! no typos here). Anyways, so I registered www.codecamp.nl to figure out a week later that SDN had similar plans and registered www.code-camp.nl. Anyway, we hooked up and the www.codecamp.nl DNS is now also pointing to the only true dutch codecamp site. Stay tuned for the next one...
