Last week my VMworld session proposal was denied, I wasn’t the only one because the presentation proposed by Scott Herold over at VMGuru.com was also denied. On top of that this evening Tarry Singh informed me that our panel discussions is denied.
This panel discussion will involve industry experts such as Mike Laverick, David Marshall, Eric Sloof and Tarry Singh (panel moderator). The focus of this panel discussion is to engage in a deep dive session on VMware's SRM (Site Recovery Manager) and VDM (VMware Desktop Manager). The panel discussion is an advanced session where industry and world renowned analysts and experts join together to discuss the disaster recovery and desktop virtualization. This is an advanced session where the audience gets to participate as well. Takeaways are: - Learn from the experienced trainers what the benefits of SRM and VDM are. - Learn when you should not use them. - Enjoy an independent discussion and participate in it yourself! - Meet industry analysts.
I’m curies what the VMworld agenda will bring us.

My VMworld 2008 session proposal :-(
Unfortunately my proposal didn’t make it to the finals, you can download it here.
Dear Eric Sloof,
Thank you for your interest in speaking at VMworld 2008. We received a record number of session proposals for this year's conference.
We were presented with the difficult task of deciding among hundreds of excellent proposals to fill a limited number of openings, while keeping in mind the need to cover a variety of topics and a good mix of industries, geographies, and business sizes. Unfortunately, we will not be able to include your following proposal in our upcoming event:
Session ID: 1420
Title: VDM2 Install and Configure
Track: Virtualizing the Desktop - VD
We greatly appreciate the time and effort you took to submit a session proposal, and we hope that you will consider applying again in the future.

Where’s the VMworld 2008 Party?
You won’t want to miss the VMworld Party at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. You’ll enjoy live entertainment and racing activities where you can speed around the track at 140 mph, race a go-cart, jump on a Big Wheel, or test your pit crew skills. Or, just unwind, enjoy the live entertainment and refreshments, and experience the unique venue.
