MVP Dagen nærmer seg (Norwegian post)

Da er det bare en uke til MVP dagen hvor 10 fantastiske Norske MVP'er og meg skal ha en dag fult av praktiskte foredrag på norsk med norske forhold som utgangspunktet. 

At dette er noe som er interessant er det ingen tvil om, selv om vi utvidet deltager antallet er det nå nesten fult igjen. Så har du ikke bestilt billett ennå bør du komme deg inn på registeringssiden og registrere deg før de siste billettene er borte.

The slides from my presentation can now be downloaded from HERE

So fare it have been nice to meet geeks from Stavanger, Bergen and Trondheim. Only Oslo left on the ALSO Roadshow this time.

Micosoft have been working hard after the code intended to ble implimentet into the kernel back in 2009 was rejected and have now been accepted into the next kernel version.

The changes will be availabe in Linux kernel 3.0.0 and will be a major step in making Hyper-V the best choice for virtualization undependent on what you want to virtualize.
