The site contains information about future presentations and future meeting dates. The site also contains lists of our past presentation topics as well as links to the presentations or additional material.
The site also contains one of the largest lists of BizTalk bloggers on the web.

I don’t know if this is old news or what, but I just discovered that ENTSSO systemin BizTalk 2006 is backwards compatible with BizTalk 2004. This means that you can have a BizTalk Server 2004 group and BizTalk Server 2006 group running side by side (during an upgrade cycle for instance) both running off the same SSO system.

Two of the six BizTalk projects I’m currently working on require me to access Oracle databases. So, I set out to prove out four major uses cases for the out-of-the-box Oracle BizTalk adapter.
Scenario #1 – Receive messages into BizTalk by polling an entire table
In this case, I need to pull in all of records […]

Like Tomas I’m
hanging out at the MVP Summit this week (didn’t see you at that party though Tomas).
Anyway – Alan Smith organized
a meet-up for some of the BizTalk MVPs – and turned it into a sort of stag event (since
I am getting married on Saturday).
Thanks Alan!
The funniest thing was the gift that he made me – here is a picture of it (it included
pints of Guinness – as well as an Non-disclosure agreeement – priceless.

I find myself once again in sunny Seattle along with 1900 of my closest friends trying to figure out which bus leads to the convention center hosting the MVP Summit (LOL). Seriously, this is the end of my first year as a Microsoft MVP and it's been an incredible experience. I feel very fortunate having been chosen for MVP status and it's been a real pleasure working with the Commerce Server team and everyone in the developer community. The MVP Summit is also a great place to hook up with old friends and codebetter.com blogger buddies and to meet some of the many MVPs here from around the world.
I just want to thank everyone that reads my blog and participates in the developer community (newsgroups, forums, etc.). Without you folks, the past year wouldn't have been half as fun!
Thanks for reading!!!

As we are phasing out GotDotNet, projects need a new location to be hosted. I’ve moved the BizTalk Server Pipeline Component Wizard to it’s new location. Please find it here.

Seattle is known for its rain. And it’s justified.
Two portuguese mvp’s at the summit tihs year are known for being sleepy and wet from the rain. 🙂 Went to Palermo’s party tonight, where we met some of the 40 Brasilian MVPs attending. An estimated 1900 MVPs and RDs from almost 90 countries are comming to be biggest summit ever. There are few BizTalk Mvp’s, but I already managed to bump into four. Geekland. 🙂

My second trip to USA’s East Coast will be to Seattle/Redmond, where the MVP Summit is being held. My agenda, the Connected Systems Track (“BizTalk, WCF and WF experts will all be “Connected Systems experts” in the future”), includes a day and an half of in-depth technical sessions held in Redmond, 14 sessions on BizTalk, WCF, WF and Identity Management.
Short sessions, several of them of level 400, and most of all the oportunity to learn, and meet other BizTalk MVPs from around the world and the Product Group. The general part of the event will include talks by BillG, as well as Don Box and Chris Anderson.
I’ll let you know what the “mothership” looks like. 🙂
