HP Connect is sponsoring "OpenVMS Month" and it is NOW, February 2010!

We are looking for people in the OpenVMS Community as well as any vendors who have something to share with the rest of us and would like to do it YESTERDAY! That's right NOW! HP Connect is looking to host webinars, develop and distribute podcasts and provide forums for videos all focused on OpenVMS and its associated products, services, uses and operation.

If you have a presentation ready to go and are just in need of an environment we need to talk to you so you can present this information next week or maybe in two weeks.

If you can bring together a presentation or webinar in the next week or so come talk to us as well so we can schedule you before the end of the month!

Yes, this is short notice. Hey, we at least have had a bit of time to pull this together. HP-UX hardly got any notice and January was their month.

Contact us to help move this along! Send email to us here.


Thanks,

John Apps
