	Microsoft Architect Connections - June 5th - 7th I know it is a bad week for something like this (the week prior to TechEd), but if you are not going to TechEd, or you just can't pass up on a great FREE conference with Harry Pierson from Microsoft, David Sprott from CBDIForum, and Aaron Skonnard from Pluralsight, you just might want to check this out: Microsoft Architect Connections event in Los Angeles June 5th - 7th in Los Angeles.  This is a free event, and is going to be a top-quality show focusing on Enabling the Service Oriented Enterprise.  Registration is LIMITED, and there are only a couple open slots left. There are some incredible sessions, and this is a rare opportunity to hear speakers of this caliber for free.  You can find out more information from the Microsoft Architect Connections web site. Register now.  Quickly, before the last slots are taken. Yeah, I know, blah, blah, blah, SOA, blah, blah, blah, SOA, but with Aarron, Harry, and even Kirk Allen Evans, presenting, you  know it will be a great event.

About donxml

I’m an independent consultant, specializing in .Net solutions architecture, based out of New Jersey who also doubles as an evangelist for XML, Domain Driven Design, enterprise architecture and .Net. I do not work for Microsoft, the W3C or any other big company that you may know of (at least not yet). I’ve been an indie for over ten years, and although I’ve been tempted a couple times to take a job with companies like Microsoft, I’ve haven’t found something better than my current situation. I work mostly with the large pharmaceuticals that are based here in New Jersey, and usually find myself on long term contracts. Definitely not the prototypical indie consultant, but it lets me dedicate time to my non-income generating activities like the developer community stuff, plus financing open source projects like XPathmania and MVP-XML. If you would like to talk to me about doing some contract work, just contact me via the contact page. My rates vary widely, depending on lots of different variables, but mostly distance from Jersey, and type of work. Plus, I’ve been known to donate some of my code for various projects.
