The MMS conference is getting near: www.mms2007.com. There will be lots of Microsoft and Partner technologies for operations and mangement:

System Center Family (Ops Manager, Configuration Manager, SCVMM, SCE, Service Desk, DPM, SCCP...), SMS 2003 (SP3 is coming), WSUS (v3 is coming), Vista/LH, Softgrid, etc.

I will be there as staff. I'll be proctoring SMS 2003 Labs (PY02) in these slots:

Mon, March 26th: 12:00PM-1:15PM, 3:00PM-4:15PM

Wed, March 28th: 11:45AM-1:00PM, 4:00PM-5:15PM

I will also be hanging out in the MS pods during breaks and BOF/ATE sessions, so you can meet me there as well.

Hope to see you all there and hope that '07 MMS will be even better then '06 :)

BTW, I am also going after the conference (Sat, March 31) for a day's climbing to that place:
