3/2/2010I know I've sort of dropped of the radar - I'm in between contracts and so am busy arranging my next assignment(s).
Meanwhile, here's where I'm going to be - and where I've been recently.
The week of 22 February I was lucky enough to assist Todd Bleeker of Mindsharp in delivery of his SharePoint 2010 Beta Development course. SharePoint 2010 and all Microsoft has done in Visual Studio 2010 to assist development for SharePoint is VERY exciting! Makes me want to be a developer again! Who knows - maybe I will... In addition to a week of jam-packed content, the evenings were full hanging out with the NoVa crowd at a handful of SharePints. Thanks to Dan Usher for arranging all those - great times.
I'm going to be using some of what I learned in Todd's class in a talk I'll be doing at the Roanoke Code Camp scheduled for Saturday, March 13th. I'll speak on customizing the branding of a SharePoint 2010 with user controls built in Visual Studio 2010. I'll also be talking on using PowerShell to manage SharePoint - both the current version and 2010.
I'll also be speaking at the Richmond Code Camp - think it's something on SharePoint and Visual Studio 2010 - need to double check on what I submitted!
I also attendded the SharePoint Tech Conference in San Francisco the week of February 9th. I can't wait to get working on SharePoint 2010 deployments! Between the conference in Vegas, San Francisco and Todd's 2010 Dev course, I'm itching to get working on some 2010 implementations.
I haven't made any SHarePoint Saturdays recently - since our local one here in Va Beach on Jan 9th. I may make the one in Charlotte on April 10th - it depends upon where I land for my next work assignment. We'll see....
Hope to see you all somewhere at a future SharePoint event. 12/11/2009
I'm very excited to be here in Kansas City to speak at my good friend, Becky Isserman's, event! I've beeen running into Becky all over the US this past year and am happy to finally get to come to her home town (for the little while longer it's her home town) and speak at her event.
Naturally - if you already know me - I've made major changes (i.e. rebuilt from the ground up) my virtual so don't have my demos ready yet - but I'll be up late tonight (night before event) putting together my demos. I DO have the presentation deck ready - since I've done this talk quite a few times now - but still find myself tweaking the deck every time! Anyway, you can download the SPSKC Dashboard presentation by clicking here. The WingDings document is here. Hope everyone has a greast time at SPSKC - I'm sure we all will. 12/8/2009
However, while this is helpful, I noticed the verion of my virtual machine's MOSS, after installing with a slipstreamed SP2, is 6421, not the 6425 reported below. Maybe because mine is a 64-bit version? Or installed as a slipstream?? Don't know, but I will continue to update any discrepanices as I find them.
Also, keep in mind if you are trying to restore content from one SharePoint instance somewhere else (e.g. using a STSADM backup/restore or export/import) then the destination version needs to be greater than or equal to the source's version. i.e. You couldn't restore a backup from a SharePoint instance running SP2 to a SharePoint instance running SP1.

This is a busy season for SharePoint Saturdays! There seem to be 3 or 4 every weekend in November! WOW! I'll be speaking at SharePoint Saturday, Richmond on Nov 21st. There are still some seats left if you'd like to join the fantastic line-up that Bonnie Surma and Erin Glenn have assembled. Details and a link where you can register here: http://www.sharepointsaturday.org/richmond Hurry over to the MSDN subscription site to download SharePoint 2010 beta, either Foundation or server. Must have MSDN to log in. I'm grabbing mine now! SWEET!
10/6/2009We're on our way down to Raleigh area. I'm speaking at the Triangle SharePoint user group this evening. Slide deck is ready and can be downlaoded here. I hope to work on the demos en route. Looking forward to seeing my good friends Michael Lotter and Josh Carlisle. I'm lucky because I'll get to see them again next week, too when they come up to speak to my SharePoint User Groups, Hampton Roads SQL Server and SharePoint User Group (HRSSUG) and the DOD SPUG. WOOT! 10/2/2009
Well, it's not quite midnight the night before our eighth (yes, count 'em!) Richmond Code Camp. I've finished my presentaiton deck, just need to get demos worked out on my virtual.... At least I'm not alone: my firend Robin Edwards is somewhere else in the motel working on her presentation for the Richmond Code Camp, too! Birds of a feather???
Sounds like we'll have a record breaking crowd tonmorrow and I'm in charge of Registration, so time to get some shut eye.
Hope everyone enjoys it. I'm sure those who attend will find it well worth their while. 9/24/2009
My past few weeks have been frustrating - dealing with virtual issues. I needed to get a way to run a 64-bit Win 2008 guest OS to support some work I'm doing on some COOL new things - let your imagination run wild! :) Anyway, that requirement boiled down to Hyper-V or booting from a VHD (with Win 7 or Win 2008 OS). I managed to get my main desktop able to boot from the VHD - so success there. No such joy on my laptop that I had upgraded RAM to 8 GB of RAM in anticipation of being able to access most of it from a virtual. So Plan B - installed Windows Server 2008 R2 on my laptop, enabled the Hyper-V role and voila! - I was able to run the 64-bit guest OS. I deluded myself that everything was hunky-dory.
Then I needed to give a demo that I'd done before - of the SharePoint BI stack and how it applies for my customers' environment. Whipped out my presentation 32-bit VHD that has all my demos on it - and found that Hyper-V insisted that the hardware of that VHD had changed so much that the virtual's OS had to be re-activated. Then the second shoe dropped. I couldn't get Hyper-V to see my laptop's NIC (Wi-Fi is totally out of the question with Hyper-V). The last two days have been spent trying to get my virtual activated - or more precisely, Hyper-V to allow my guest OS access to my network. No joy.
Pressure's mounting because we're on our way to the Richmond SPUG tonight, en route to Roanoke's SPUG Friday, Sept 25th - where I'm supposed to present for half a day - with the virtual I can't get to boot. Other issues on other laptops cropped up along the way (e.g. former demo laptop has dead video - it's a brick on KVM, former, former laptop doesn't have enough RAM so virtual is dog-slow..) You get the picture. Tick, tick, tick.. Finally dropped back and punted - meaning I loaded Windows 7 on my Windows 2008 R2 with Hyper-V laptop in dual-boot mode, and now I can at least run the 32-bit VMs from Windows 7, albeit only allowed about 3.5 GBs of my 8 GBs of RAM. Still, it's operational.
So now while my husband drives us to Richmond (traffic sucks, of course - tunnels, Navy traffic,...), I'm installing core applications on the new Win 7 image - Office 2007, Tweetdeck, my Verizon aircard app,
I dropped by my blog to grab former presentations I'm giving tomorrow in Roanoke - so I can polish them up - and decided to vent my virtual frustrations here.
Final piece of getting my 32-bit VMs to work in my Hyper-V laptop will be to install Hyper-V Server on my desktop at home, get that Hyper-V to authenticate my 32-bit VMs, and then export/import them over to my laptop running Hyper-V. Wish me luck!
