Ég ætla að kynna í New York SharePoint Developers hóp fundi í New York í Microsoft Skrifstofur á 6TH AVE á þriðjudag, 01/27 á 6:00 PM (rúmri viku héðan í frá!).
It’s going to be a technical presentation where I walk through the process of creating a custom workflow action that can be packaged and installed into a SharePoint environment and used by SharePoint Designer to create declarative workflow solutions.
Think this: http://www.codeplex.com/spdactivities
I’ll do a little evangelizing as I go along, making the case that developers should really think hard about the benefits of this kind of effort. it goes something like this: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, build him a custom workflow action and he can design and implement his own business process for finding fish (or any other food!) and leave the developers alone to do the heavy duty complex programming that developers are best at doing.
It’s obviously a developer oriented session, but I do encourage curious end users and admins to show up. Even though the specific process of creating a custom action is targeted directly at developers, the meta conversation about one is not.

Ég ætla að gera tvær kynningar á því SharePoint Best Practices Ráðstefna í febrúar í San Diego.
Ég hef ekki verið að gera þetta í nógu lengi til að fá jaded af henni, svo er hvert ráðstefnu sótti ég, hreinskilnislega, ógnvekjandi. Hins, I do think this conference is special. There is zero marketing focus and the whole thing is about offering real-world practical advice on how to untangle some of the thorniest issues we face dealing with SharePoint. It’s not gigantic, þannig að allir af the ræðumaður eru mjög aðgengileg (amk þegar þeir eru ekki að setja út eldar aftur heim). This means that in addition to the great formal presentations, þú getur haft nokkur frábær samtöl og rökræðum með nánast öllum hátalara á nánast hvaða tíma, starting with communal breakfast up to late night imbibing at the hotel bar.
Handan hátalarana, you’ll have great opportunities to build and cement networks of other SharePoint users in the community. By the end of the last session and conference wrap-up, þú munt vera orkugjafi og fullur af góðum hugmyndum til að koma aftur til starfa til að bæta SharePoint umhverfi.
Það er vel þess virði að fjárfestingar.
The web site is top notch. Stöðva það út fyrir dagsetningarnar, skráning, efni og hátalara.

Á síðustu tveimur vikum, I attended the New Jersey SharePoint user group and the newly formed New York SharePoint Nýskráning user group (öfugt við fleiri komið New York SharePoint notendahóp).
Í New Jersey, the good people of NewsGator presented their product and covered a lot of very interesting social computing concepts. If you’re looking to incorporate social computing into your organization in a system-assisted way and can’t get out-of-the-box SharePoint to do it for you, seriously check out NewsGator. It’s very good stuff. A lot of great social computing functionality and (in a demo environment at least) very well done.
I’m personally convinced that companies that begin to adopt social computing attitudes and systems will outperform those that do not. It’s too useful to ignore or, at this point I think, to even delay. It can make a tremendous difference in day-to-day operations if done correctly. I’ll write some more about this later.
In New York last night, the NY SharePoint Developers group kicked off its inaugural meeting at the MSFT office on 52nd and 6th. John Bender presented on how to create a custom stsadm extension. I’ve read about it, but seeing it "live" clarifies things. It’s much easier than I realized. No need for features/solutions, just an XML file and a DLL. He walked through a process for recursively finding and displaying security settings for sites and lists in a site collection. He took it farther to describe how this could be part of an auditing process. This group focuses purely on development and so doesn’t come into conflict with larger more established SharePoint user group which is frequently talking at a higher level.
There are groups all across the world. Check them out.

Ég tala við SharePoint Best Practices ráðstefnu í nóvember.
It’s sort of a funny story. I was in Virginia presenting at the SUGDC ráðstefnu and that Friday was the deadline to submit speaking proposals for the BP conference. The organizers described how they would use a "blind selection" ferli og að hver tilraun yrði gerð til að velja kynningu á grundvelli verðmæti hennar, o.fl.. To maximize my chances of getting selected, I submitted two proposals. The selection committee picked both.
Samstarfsmaður minn (Natalya Voskresenskaya) and I will discuss a real-world governance model that we and our client put together for a substantial SharePoint rollout project last summer. The objective here is to describe the details of the governance plan and why we believe it represents best practices in the context of Sharepoint, Stjórnsýsla og áþekk fyrirtæki.
Annað, I will present a process for obtaining great business requirements from End Users. This goes back to one of my very early blog posts, inaptly titill "Moss: Árangursrík kynning á stofnun".
Þessi ráðstefna lítur út fyrir að vera hrikalega fullt af frábærum upplýsingum og ég mæli rífa þig í burtu frá vinnu í þrjá daga, þátt í á þessum kynningum og net með bæði ráðstefnu mæta og hátalarar. It will be time and money well spent.
Hope to see you there 🙂

My samstarfsmaður (Natalya Voskresenskaya) and I will be speaking at the Fairfield/Westchester SharePoint User Group meeting at 6:00 PM á 07/16 (Miðvikudagur). We are talking about the content query web part. This is the same (en endurbætt útgáfa sem við gáfum til New York maí).
Pre-skrá hér: https://www.clicktoattend.com/invitation.aspx?code=129626&wa=wsignin1.0
Natalya og ég vona að sjá þig þar!
Here’s the email Richard Martzelle just sent out on the subject:
Topic: Using Content Query Web Part to Create Business Solutions
Speakers: Paul Galvin & Natalya Voskresenskaya
Dagsetning: Júlí 16th Velkomin Time: (Eat & Network): 6:00PM Tími: 6:30 PM -8:00PM
Meeting Description
MOSS 2007’s Content Query Web Part (CQWP) enables users to create custom views of data queried from many sources, and present that data in one place. Despite its powerful query & content refinement options, CQWP is often an underrated and overlooked feature. CQWP is both a "data extraction engine" (find documents or list items anywhere in a site collection) and also a first-class presentation tool that enables users to control how content is presented by wrapping HTML and styles to format the display nearly any way you wish.
In this demo-heavy session, they will show how to use the CQWP to solve business problems by showing off core features
• use default CWQP features, including audience targeting
• use CWQP as a reporting tool anywhere in a site collection via filter criteria such as "all documents created today"
• change look & feel of query results to highlight business data, show additional columns of information, display information in a grid format, and others
• show how CQWP can aid in content type administration (i.e. find all documents of a particular content type so as to understand potential impact of changing a CT definition)
• describe some limitations of CQWP
• provide a list of resources for advanced CQWP techniques, þ.mt blogg, ECQWP Codeplex project & MSDN documentation

I attended my first ever SharePoint conference this past weekend and it was a blast.
Fimmtudagur síðdegi, Ég keyrði niður til Virginia, leiðarljósi nýlega keypt minn $50 GPS appliance plug-in thing to my phone. The device was flawless. After the five hour drive, I had the energy to do a nice run on the tread mill and then, even more surprisingly, had the energy to head to the lobby for an advertised speaker’s cocktail hour. Conference n00b that I am, it turned out that the cocktail hour was really a ruse to get speakers to show up and help stuff papers and swag into shoulder bags for conference attendees 🙂
Had a hard time sleeping because I was speaking first thing Friday AM. Nervousness, a nagging feeling that I needed to add a slide to my presentation and a very disturbing cat show on Animal Planet kept me up late. Since I went to sleep late, I naturally got up early. I did add a fairly detailed technical architecture slide. It was well worth the effort because the 25 minutes of Q&A would have been very awkward without it. I was lucky to get the first slot in the technical track. Sahil Malik was originally going to speak Friday AM and I was going to speak Saturday but he needed to swap times. This allowed me to do my presentation and then sit back and enjoy everything going forward Friday and Saturday.
The presentation went OK. I definitely have room to improve it. I spoke about how we can access and use web services from a SharePoint Designer workflow using a custom action. Með tímanum, I will tie this information into my series over at EUSP.com for End Users trying to get the most use out of that tool. I blew through my slides and demo in 35 mínútur, to my dismay at the time. Til allrar hamingju, Q&A was lively, no doubt helped by the fact that it was early morning before lunch. Q&A is my favorite part of any presentation.
There were many interesting subjects and I hope to blog about them in greater detail this week (time permitting, as always). A fellow from CMS Watch provided a highly critical yet very hopeful review of SharePoint’s position in the market. A different discussion focused on the paucity of SharePoint resources and the difficulty that recruiters have finding good talent that is also "affordable" in this very tight market. The CMS Watch guy referred to the SharePoint human resources pool as being like a "guild." I’m mainly familiar with that term in MMORPG terms and it gave me a little thrill, to be honest 🙂
The highlight of the conference was just meeting and catching up with people I’ve "known" online for a while. The best was sitting at the bar with Becky Isserman (MossLover) fyrir 3 eða 4 klst (and that, after I had finished drinking for the night). I don’t often get to talk about Farscape eða Babylon 5 with Kansas City residents.
Bob Fox was there and as usual, is a whirlwind of intros, chats and just plain frenetic energy. He invited me to Saturday breakfast with Sahil Malik and that was great.
Saturday (day 2), Mike Lotter dragged himself to the conference to speak about InfoPath and then he joined Becky at the end of the day to do a sort of general Q&A session for about 30 að 45 minutes mainly focused on InfoPath (Mike) and AJAX (Becky). I wish Becky had been able to go through her full/formal presentation but I’m sure I’ll get a chance to see that one of these days. I have a feeling she’ll be "hitting the circuit" going forward.
I could go on and on. Two last points — the financial purpose of the conference was to raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network and it raised $5,000. That was awesome. Lokum, I want to publicly thank Gary Blatt, Gary Vaughn and Bob Fox for alerting me to and allowing me to speak at the conference. Auðvitað, the two Gary’s had a team of people supporting and organizing and all of you were awesome. I had high expectations before I went and it was better than I had hoped for.
Keep on the alert for the next conference scheduled for November 7th and 8th. Aside from some great content, it’s terrific for meeting up with all those online personalities you’ve known through blogs, Twitter, forums, o.fl..
