I would like to personally invite all our enthusiastic Servoy users to come to ServoyWorld 2006 in Boston! Let me introduce myself - I’m Brenda Duncan and have joined the Servoy team to coordinate ServoyWorld. Along with loads of help from Yvo, Bob, Jan, Andy, Marc and many others, we have put together a great location (a beautiful Marriott on the South Shore of Boston) and are putting together an excellent line up of topics and speakers. I hope you will come to join us! I got to visit Amsterdam last year (I was only there for the very beginning…) but I can’t wait to see the full blown ServoyWorld at Boston this year – and I hope to meet each and everyone of you in September.

P.S. - Don’t forget to register early and to make your hotel reservations soon, as the low rate is going to be gone fast! Plus - don’t forget, you get FREE internet if you do your hotel reservations soon!

Brenda :D

I said I’d post the next enrollee’s – so far they are all coming in from the USA. Europe started out hot and fast – and now its all American.

Secret hint – keep your eyes open for our next newsletter – we will be doing a poll asking for your input on what topics we should add to the sessions.

The “early bird” sign ups are going on like crazy on this last day. ALSO - I just got off the phone with the hotel – they allowed me to add a few more rooms at the low rate (with free internet) but they are going fast. Please, please sign up today AND make your hotel reservations ASAP so that you can get the good rates. I’m not sure how many more (if any) I can add.

Thanks all you Servoy FANS!!

ServoyWorld is in Boston this year, the birthplace of American Independence. So those of us in the USA office convinced the team in Holland to let us offer a special price rollback for ServoyWorld just in time for America’s independence day (July 4 - for those in Europe and beyound, who might not know our holidays!).

Check out the special $300 off (limited time, only for the holiday period!) at http://www.servoy.com/servoyworld/main.jsp

We have updated the ServoyWorld web page and there is a LOT of new stuff going on!

We can’t wait to see you all in Boston, so be sure and register soon.

I have placed some videos online.

See here

Hope you will enjoy it.

Harjo,

Thanks for posting those videos, but since some of them contain potentially sensitive information (like the upcoming features of 3.1), did you get permission to post them? If so, then kindly disregard this message.

12

chaps…take this discussion offline :)

13

Good idea, cybersack. Harjo, I sent you a personal message.

Please forgive me if I came across like a jerk. It wasn’t my intent. I just wanted to be sure that Servoy gave their blessing for upcoming features to be made public. Of course, I’m not sure how many YouTube visitors search for Servoy videos anyway ;o)

14

yes ofcourse I have permission. personally from Jan Aleman.
I asked him upfront, and if I’m right he allready have seen it.
