If it's (almost) spring in Orlando, Florida, then it must be time for conferences. And indeed, DSO software vendor Wind River has announced the date and venue for its 2006 Worldwide User Conference: May 15-18, the Omni Hotel, Orlando.
The program should be a good one. Some 180 papers have been submitted for presentation, according to my sources, so the program coordinators have a good (or, at least, big) pool to pick from. Celebrity keynoters will include Steven D. Levitt, an economist and author of the best-selling book, Freakonomics, and Phil Gordon, a professional poker player and co-host of Bravo's Celebrity Poker Showdown on TV. Wind River's CEO, Ken Klein, and CMO, the irrepressible John Bruggeman, will speak, too.
It was just last May that Wind River unveiled its master DSO strategy. Not incidentally, that's also when DSO.com was launched, with Wind River as our launch sponsor. This was the same conference at which John Bruggeman made his on-stage entrance by sledgehammering his way through the backdrop, accompanied by a full-tilt rock band. I can't wait to see what he's got planned for an encore.
