The Messaging and UC user groups come together for a special pre-TechEd event. Two members of the products groups in Redmond have offered to present to us on their way to Berlin.

Astrid McClean is a Senior Technical Product Manager in the Exchange group. With the recent launch of Exchange 2010 Astrid will be speaking about management, new administration capabilities and self service with a focus on roles based access control (RBAC).

Following Astrid we have Yancey Smith who is a Director of Product Management within the the OCS group. Yancey will be presenting two slots for us. The first session will providing an overview of OCS 2007 R2, exposing some of the features you may not realise are there and potential for the product within your organisaiton.

Following a break we will start a closed-doors non-disclosure agreement session where you can share with Yancey your wish list and frustrations with OCS and there will be a discusison with his thoughts on how these may be addressed.

The NDA to be signed will be avaiable on the evening. If you need to review a copy in advance please email russ dot kirk atdomain uccommunity.org.uk.

Look forward to seeing you all there, and a pint or two afterwards.

Note: The email confirming your attendance from Event Brite will ask you to print the ticket and bring it with you. You don't need to, we'll have a list on the night and will check you off against that.
