I'm delighted to report that the first IT in Action event (presented by Open Horizons) hit Scotland today for the first time ever, at the John McIntyre Conference Centre in Edinburgh. Amongst the sessions were presentations on Identity Manager 4, From SMTP to Novell Pulse, a live migration of NetWare to Linux (which went flawlessly!) as well as partner presentations from Novell, Messaging Architects, GWAVA and NDS8.
With the feedback we've got back so far, the desire is there for us to return north of the border, which we will hopefully be doing some time in the near future. As for now, the roadshow moves further south to Bletchley Park next Wednesday 7th July. There is still time to register, but places are going very quickly. To register, visit this page.
The content remains the same, and we hope to see you there! If not, registration has now opened for the UK Summit and Hot Labs on the 12th and 13th October at Horwood House in Milton Keynes. Go here to register for that event. |

2009 - Looking back and looking forwards |

I'm sat writing this at our summer 2009 event at Austin Court in Birmingham. 2009 has been a landmark year for us at OH as we of course launched on the back of the old Groupware User Group UK. The launch event in March was a big success (over 70 delegates) and now we have had a pretty good turnout in Birmingham, especially considering the summer holidays and the current economic climate!
For the first time, we have run a Bring Your Own Laptop (BYOL) session, which went pretty well. Hopefully we can do this again in future, with other installables, not just SLES11.
As for the rest of the year, we now look forward to the Open Horizons EMEA Tour & Summit Event in October in Oxford. We hope you can join us for three days of Novell community content, hands on labs and of course top notch networking! Further details and pricing for this event (including special rates for OH members) will be released over the next few days. We look forward to seeing you there! |

If you are using ZENworks 10 Configuration Management , you may be interested to know that system update 10.1.3 is due to arrive next week (w/c 16th February). As usual, there will be a plethora of bug fixes and enhancements in the code, and it's recommended to update your systems as soon as you can.
Coming further down the line will be ZCM 10.2, this is currently in public beta. There will be lots of enhancements in this release, the main one being the introduction of Linux Satellite servers. For more information on ZCM, please join us for the Open Horizons UK Launch meeting on March 25th! |
