I was fortunate to attend the Australian SharePoint Conference this week (June 16 & 17). This was a surprisingly good conference – comfortable venue, well organized, top notch speakers, great networking and most importantly a very useful look in detail into SharePoint 2010. Complaints & Reality There’s always a few things to complain about at a conference eg the air...

The speaker line-up ‘aint shabby either. [Note: There’s also a few extras for attendees but I wouldn’t get too excited about them (eg attendees all get a SharePoint Server 2010 hosted site...
Back in January Oscar Trimboli started a great discussion on whether there was a lack of SharePoint developers in Australia.
