I just got an email from Sunil who I met at MIX07. He thought that he recongized  me from the Scott Gu, MVC presentation at ALT.NET in Austin.

Well yes that was me sitting up with the Gu. It was a packed session at ALT.NET and the crowd was very pleased with what they saw. I was quite surprised as Scott Hanselman held a small camera for most of the presentation.

It amazes how much I was able to get involved in this past year:

• MIX07
• A number of Code Camps and User Group Presentations. NYC, Boston, Philly,  Westchester
• JP's Training Class - Nothing But DotNet Training class
• Meeting Rob Conery in Kauaui
• DEVconnections and presenting at OpenForce
• Completing a 1 YR consulting Project and leaving with highly satisfied users
• Starting a new project with the goal of introducing, CI, TDD, DDD, and..MVC!

Today marks my last commute crossing the hudson river via the tappan zee bridge.

The assignment to build an internal reporting application for a major vwireless carrier has been a great success, this is of course according to the manager and users of the new system! To me there is more refactoring and additional features to be added. There was plenty more tinkering to be done...

I leave the application in the trusty hands of Bharti, who was a bright spot of the project the past few months since she joined the team. It has been great to have someone to challenge my design and approach for building solutions. It was the closest to pair programming that I have come and I liked it.

The manager of the team created a supportive environment and he made every effort to give me the tools to create a successful project. Thanks Gus!  I know Nick and Karin will keep those employee recognition lunches going. I will miss the people and great atmosphere.

We are half way through the DevConnections and OpenForce Conference. Rob and I just finished our presentation on using SubSonic and DotnNetNuke. The audience had some good questions and people certainly are interested in other Data Access Layers for DotNetNuke
