Hi!

As you may know, MySQL is holding it's third annual User's Conference
on April 18-21 in Santa Clara, California.

This is a annual event that I (and the other cofounder Monty) love to
participate in. It nice to see so many people in one place exited
about MySQL!

It's a unique opportunity to meet and discuss with some of the key
developers who work on MySQL's.

And as important a even more unique place to meet with other
users/customer, partners and people checking out MySQL for the first
time. Many people I meet last year thought it was especially
interesting to meet other customers

Not only do we share the current roadmap and vision for where MySQL is
going (and where we wont go!), this is also an opportunity to
influence our roadmap and give us feedback.

And there will be presentations by the key developers of MySQL.

Brian Aker (Server & GUI overall),
Sanja Byelkin (query cache, views & subqueries),
Mark Matthews (Java & JDBC / MXJ driver),
Reggie Burnett (.Net),
Peter Gulutzan, Trudy Pelzer (both MySQL vs commercial and official
standards),
Mike Zinner (MySQL Administrator & other GUI's),
Peter Gralbraith (Perl-DBI + Federated Storage Engine),
Heikki Turi (InnoDB Storage Engine),
Peter Zaitsev, Josh Chamas (both practical MySQL performance tuning
gurus)
and many others (including Monty and me who still knows a thing or two).

And of course keynotes from people like Miguel de Icaza (Gnome, Mono &
Novell), Mikael Tieman (g++, Cygnus, RedHat, OSI) and Adam Bosworth
(Google, BEA).

For all speakers (I can only mention a few of the ones I happen to
meet personally here) see http://mysqluc.com/pub/w/35/speakers.html

There will be a lot of focus on using new features in MySQL 5.0,
performance optimization techniques, cluster, replication, migration,
as well as case studies and best practices presentations so you can
learn from others.

Almost all of the MySQL management team (including CEO, VP Eng, VP
Services etc) will be ther. And of course some of our best sales guys
(they are nice guys, they bring in all the money we pay our developers
with!)..

If there's just one event you go to this year make it this one.
You'll can learn from the experts and also talk to other users in a
similar situation.

This year, our conference is jointly presented by MySQL AB and
O'Reilly so there's not only a great lineup of speakers but it will
also be a lot of fun.

However, the conference is rapidly approaching and so fat the " 5.0 In
Depth: Stored Procedures, Views, Triggers, Cursors" and "Advanced
MySQL Performance Optimization" tutorials are already full.

You can find out more information at www.mysqluc.com. We look forward
to seeing you there!
