Finally Microsoft has announced PDC 2006. The PDC 2006 will be held on June 28th to 30th. The first day of the event will also be hosted in Lahore and Karachi at the same time and will be shown live via video conference.
The event Details are as follows
Pakistan Developer Conference 2006 is the event that provides a comprehensive technical overview as well as more insight on the latest (both recently released and upcoming) Microsoft development and platform technologies. During Pakistan Developer Conference 2006, there will be sessions that would demonstrate the latest features that were introduced in Visual Studio 2005, SQL Server 2005, BizTalk Server 2006, Windows Vista and how all these technologies can be used to build reliable, secure, high performance applications that can connect people, information, processes and systems together. More than 2000 technology professionals from across Pakistan are expected to join this event and get the opportunity to meet and interact with top technology experts in the industry and Microsoft team for the duration of the event.
I hope there will be few guys from eWorx who will be there not as visitor but presenters. I would love to see my former colleague there presenting stuff. The agenda for the event is as follows
