IamLUG and GSXDay

So I'm sitting in the last portion of the GSXDay event after 2 days of the first IamLUG event. Kudos to Chris Miller and crew (including his kids) for putting on such a fantastic event. The sessions were well thought out and the presenters were at, or above, the level of the presenters you see at Lotusphere. Of course Paul Mooney was here and he's always good for a laugh, usually at his expense. The usual suspects presented many of the sessions; Paul, John, Chris, Eileen, Mary, Mitch, Kathleen, Etc. Of course the group secured the yearly bonuses for Anheuser Busch management since their sales goals for the month were met last night in the hotel bar. I'll be back for IamLUG 2010, wherever they plan to have it. I encourage all of you that didn't attend, to come and those of you that signed up, but didn't show - Fail. Of course, I'll be at Lotusphere 2010 as well.

OH, GSX Plug, Cool Tool....It really can save an admin his/her job just based on sanity alone. If you have lots (and even little) amounts of servers to monitor, you really need to check them out.

Also, IBM - in Notes 8.5.1 ( Or the next release) we need to have the ability to stop a large attachment from being sent by a user BEFORE it leaves the client and gets delivered to the router (ROOTER if your from Ireland). It's nice that we can block it on the servers, but if the user has a limit, block the message before it's leaves the client. Stop wasting server resources telling the user NO, when the client can do that at no cost to performance!
