Reports of pigs flying in Orlando

Also in today's new, SQL Server 2008 stamps are available at your local post office? William Green provides a pic from the field.

An unconfirmed rumors of a public SQL Server 2008 RC0 and Windows 2008 VHD's are coming in but we think that is just right wing rhetoric. While the two products are certainly made for each other, the high oil prices and credit crunch make this combination unlikely until after the democratic convention in August.

Some of the MSFT employees at TechED told me that SQL Server 2008 RC0 will hit next week. I suspect Tuesday so it can be announced in TechEd ITPro keynote. That is all.

TechED Dev Conference Day 3 Review and Pic's

Posted by Jason Massie Click to IM Jason Massie on Thursday, June 05, 2008 at 8:49 PM to SQL Server 2008, SQL Connections, PASS, TechEd

What can I say? Another great day at TechED. My highlight was Adam Machanic's error handling session. I learned something new! I liked Andrew Kelly's trace session too but I do everything he does when analyzing traces already. Nice to know that I was on track. I have a trace session coming up in Swynk's vconference that is pretty similar + SQL 2008 updates. I worked the storage engine station for a while and helped customers. That was cool. I did sneak in to Peter DeBetta's and Michael Wang's session for a few minutes to snap a few picks.

As cool as TechED is, I must say that the SQL content is better at PASS and SQL Connections. I have done all three from both sides of the podium. I can honestly say that from a purely technical view of things, I would rank it like this: PASS, SQL Connections, TechED.

Anyway, here are today's the pics.
