I submitted three sessions to the 2011 Summit for consideration and I heard today that two of them were accepted, with the third being an alternate.
It’s nice to be accepted, especially as there is always a lot of competition for people to speak and there are tons of submissions each year. I don’t know the total this year, but I’m sure it was over 500 for 160 or so slots.
My two sessions are:
