I missed the 2010 MVP Summit, which is disappointing. There were a lot of SQL 11 talks and I was looking forward to those. I was also hoping to get together with a lot of MVP friends that I rarely see.
However this weekend in Charlotte, for SQL Saturday #33, it appears that it’s like a mini-summit, and thanks to Peter Shire and SQL Sentry for assembling an amazing lineup. I am sure I am forgetting someone, but look at this lineup:

• Andy Warren
• Andy Leonard
• Jessica Moss
• Kevin Kline
• Rushabh Mehta
• Wayne Snyder
• Allen White (the roommate I missed at the Summit)
• Andrew Kelley
• Aaron Bertrand
• Tim Ford
• Denny Cherry
• Geoff Hiten
• Ashton Hobbs
• Alejandro Mesa
• Mike Walsh
• Patrick LeBlanc
• Kendal van Dyke
• and more

Not all MVPs, but a few probably deserve it.
I think I’m the weakest link of this bunch. This was one of the best lineups I’ve seen at an event, and incredible for a free event. SQL Pros in Charlotte, you should consider yourselves lucky to have the chance to attend this amazing day of training for free.
