This event was held in Porirua (NZ) on the weekend of 7th and 8th of December '08. Posting this snippet from an email I sent the the NZ SQL Server Mailing List, as a future reminder to myself about how useful the event was ;-)
...
My personal favourites were Adam and Greg's 'Iron DBA' (which was a nice wakeup for the first morning), Pete Smith's spatial data talk (I'm biased on this one), and James' talk about certification (quite motivating!).
I was also quite interested in Adam's reporting services talk, but I realised there was a server failure at work about that time so spent most of the time doing emergency recovery type stuff :-/ Fortunately my colleagues took lots of notes (I hope!). To top it off, Chris' SQL Data Services talk was a bit of a riot and certainly captured the interest of the whole group I think.
All in all well worth the trip from Auckland. The only thing I will complain about is the weather - why did NZ have to turn on the finest two days of the year on that weekend??
