Uploading of day 2 is in progress and I’ll supply notification when complete Enjoy.
All of the slides and demo code the speakers wanted to share are available for your enjoyment at http://1drv.ms/1vMWmtm I’m currently uploading the videos which is a slow process. I’ll post when hat activity is completed.
I would like to express a huge thank you to the speakers and attendees at our recent Summit. The speakers delivered an excellent set of sessions that dived into PowerShell features new and old. The attendees asked lots of questions, both during and after sessions, which is what we want. This is a Summit not a conference where a speaker rushes in, delivers a talk and rushes out. We wanted a healthy level of discussion and that’s what we got. The feed back we’ve had has been very positive from both the attendees and speakers. We managed to record practically all of the sessions and those videos as well as the slides and code will be available for download soon. This year’s event in Amsterdam has laid a very solid foundation for the future of the European Summit and our plans are to run a European Summit in 2015. Exact location and dates haven’t been decided yet but we will communicate them as soon as we know.
The final agenda for the PowerShell Summit is available at http://eventmgr.azurewebsites.net/event/home/PSEU14 Circumstances beyond the control of PowerShell.org have meant we’ve had to make a few changes to the agenda from that previously published. Look forward to seeing you all in Amsterdam.
This is the last call for attendee registration for the European PowerShell Summit 2014. The Summit is in Amsterdam - 29 September to 1 October 2014. Details from the events page https://powershell.org/community-events/summit/. Due to a change in circumstances beyond our control we have to close public registration on 10 September 2014. If you contact us by 10 September and ask to be able to perform a funds transfer rather than paying on line you have until 15 September 2014 to complete that transaction. No monies or registrations will be accepted after 15 September. We will not accept any new request for paying by money transfer after 10 September. Apologies for the change in dates (the web site states registration is open until 15 September) but our hands have been forced on this. There are still a number of places available so please register quickly if you want to attend. The more attendees we have the better chance we have of staging a European PowerShell Summit in 2015.
There are just over two weeks left for you to register for the European PowerShell Summit. At the moment we are still short of the number that would enable us to repeat a European Summit in 2015. We had a lot of comments from people stating they wanted a Summit in Europe. Now is the time to step up and support that idea. Hope to see you there
There seems to have been a bit of confusion regarding the European PowerShell Summit as the site will tell you that registration is currently unavailable. There isn’t a problem and the Summit HAS NOT sold out at this time. WE just haven’t opened registration yet. Registration will open on 15 July 2014 .
The PowerShell Summit is the number one place where PowerShell enthusiasts gather and learn from each other in fast-paced, knowledge packed presentations. Experts from all over the world including MVP’s, Guru’s, and PowerShell team members, join together for a few days to discuss and learn how to maximize using PowerShell in the workplace. And now the PowerShell Summit is coming to Europe. PowerShell Summit Europe 2014 will be held September 29, 30, and October 1 at the Hotel Park in Amsterdam, Holland. https://powershell.org/community-events/summit/powershell-summit-europe/ If you want to share your PowerShell expertise, then this is your official call to submit presentations for selection! **Topic Areas – What we are looking for ** We are looking for 45-minute presentations covering a wide aspect of PowerShell expertise. We have three main topic areas that may assist you in building an abstract. • PowerShell Internals – A deep look into the inside workings of PowerShell and practical solutions that are built from them. These presentations are more focused on the PowerShell development community that is building extensions and solutions relating to PowerShell. • PowerShell in Production – These presentations are focused on domain specific PowerShell solutions for IT Pro’s such as managing Exchange, System Center, IIS, SharePoint, VMware and more. • PowerShell Features Deep Dive – These presentations are a deep look into configuring and working with PowerShell features and capabilities such as PowerShell Remoting, PowerShell Web Access, Reporting and more. We are open to presentations across the entire ecosystem that has been built around PowerShell; so don’t hesitate to send an abstract for your particular area of expertise. And don’t think, “oh, I can’t do a presentation!” We aren’t looking for Toastmasters winners – we’re looking for folks to be a part of the community! Take the leap and present! Each session is only 35 minutes, with 10 minutes for Q&A!

Compensation for speakers will be free admission (not free Association for Windows PowerShell Professionals membership, https://powershell.org/association-for-windows-powershell-professionals, just free admission, which includes food). We will not reimburse hotel, expenses, or travel. It’s important that speakers not register for the conference, because we will not be refunding you if you do that.
