I've managed to chase down the majority of the speakers from SPSPerth and have uploaded all their slide decks. I've found in the past that just blogging that they are available doesn't raise interest. So below I have put some info on what they are about to rustle some larger interest in Global SharePoint Community ;-)

A big thanks again to all the 18 speakers and also to all of the 125 attendees that turned up on the day! The event has had great feedback and I will start planning the next one shortly!

All of the slide decks are available here on my skydrive. The webcasts will be up by Friday next week, I haven't had time to encode them as yet.

Developer Track

• Tommy Segoro (WA) - SharePoint Development in 2010
  Presenting what type of developments you can do (and the mechanisms to do them) with SP2010 + VS2010 versus MOSS2007 + VS2008.
• Stephen Roche & Doug Orange (WA) - BCS and InfoPath: an overview of integration with SharePoint 2010
  The new Business Connectivity Service provides a much improved mechanism for connecting with external data sources, and InfoPath 2010 allows rapid development of SharePoint forms. Together these tools enable powerful integration from within SharePoint – this session will include a demonstration of the technologies.
• Garry Stewart (WA) - Enterprise Friendly Office Applications
  Business users rely upon Excel and Access to deliver low cost, tactical solutions that can often be developed by the users themselves. These systems are often the bane of IT departments, representing a versioning, backup and distribution nightmare. This session will look at how SharePoint 2010 can help you keep both the IT department and your business users happy by allowing you to develop enterprise friendly Office applications.
• Frik Stuart (WA) - Enterprise search with FAST Search
  With the arrival of SharePoint 2010 around the corner, FAST Search is starting to gain more visibility in the industry. So what exactly is FAST Search, and how does it differ from the built-in search offering in MOSS 2007 (Did you know that FAST Search is already available for integration into MOSS 2007 as FAST ESP)? How does FAST fit in with the search offering for SharePoint 2010? The presentation is intended to provide an overview of FAST search and some general principles of enterprise search, and where FAST fits into the landscape of different search offerings, especially in relation to MOSS 2007 and SharePoint 2010. Next, the presentation will cover a high-level overview of the FAST architecture. Lastly, some examples of the application of FAST to provide solutions will be provided.
• Michael Hanes (WA) - Best Practices developing with SharePoint Lists
  Lists are key to understanding the power of the SharePoint platform and provide core data storage and management facilities in a SharePoint environment. Lists can be customised to suit custom requirements but doing so isn't always straightfoward. Learn how create, deploy, manage, and interact with SharePoint lists in this jam-packed session. Discussion will cover the pros and cons of using SharePoint lists before focusing on methods for creating and deploying lists between environments in a repeatable manner; techniques for working with lists and data using the SharePoint API with also be demonstrated. Existing experience with the SharePoint UI, a cursory knowledge of content types, and ASP.NET development experience is recommended but not assumed.
• Jeremy Thake (WA) – Introducing Team System to SharePoint Development

Information Worker Track

• Phil Duffy (WA) - Extending the reach and impact of SharePoint with electronic and paper documents
  Planning and architecting SharePoint with emphasis on content types together with the KnowledgeLake product suite to create a scalable and usable implementation. Providing an alternate interface to upload and categorise content in SharePoint while benefitting from its content management strengths.
• Paul Culmsee (WA) - Wicked Problems and SharePoint
  Wicked problems are a particular class of problems – that often defy traditional thinking, tools, and methods that are useful only for simpler ("tame") problems. Most projects today have a significant wicked component and SharePoint is especially susceptible to falling victim. SharePoint project failure more often than not a result of problem wickedness. In fact, wicked problems are so commonplace that the chaos and futility that usually attend them are accepted as inevitable. Failing to recognize the "wicked dynamics" in problems, we persist in applying inappropriate methods and tools to them. This session introduces the concept and characteristics of wicked problems, why SharePoint projects are predisposed to falling foul of them and why traditional project management and governance approaches can in fact make the situation far worse. Finally, this session will reveal the *one* best-practice that should be adopted before any other best-practice, with a simple, yet practical method to do so.
• Ian Loughton (WA) - Using VIEWS instead of Meeting-Workspace
• Neil Haddley - SharePoint Document imaging - The paper-laden office is here to stay
  Document imaging brings the worlds of IT solutions and paper together in a way that improves productivity and transparency. As an integrated Enterprise Content Management platform Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 allows users to: • scan paper documents and paper forms to a central repository • search for scanned paper documents and forms using SharePoint's search engine • view scanned documents and forms from multiple locations; and • automate business processes that are in part paper-based This session will demonstrate how you can become a hero by using your existing SharePoint knowledge to take control of your organization's paper documents and paper forms.
• Joshau Haebets (VIC) - Working Offline with SharePoint Workspaces
  SharePoint Workspaces is the client for SharePoint 2010. Groove gave us the ability to take SharePoint 2007 content offline, SharePoint Team Workspaces takes that to the next level. This session will begin with a walk through the components that make up SharePoint Workspace and the administration considerations. We will then take you through the workspace experience, working with documents and lists and managing versions and document editing. We will then dive into taking Line of Business data offline using BCS, InfoPath and SharePoint Workspaces and how you can build offline applications. Real business scenarios will be shown in this session to give you and your business some ideas as to how Workspaces can help your mobile and disconnected workforce communicate and collaborate with those in the office.
• William Cornwill (VIC) - Lap around SharePoint 2010: Tips and tricks for end-users
  Taking advantage of the power of SharePoint 2010 for end-user.

IT Pro Track

• Michael Noel (US) – Virtualization of SharePoint 2010 Farm Architecture
  Server virtualization technologies have taken front stage recently and many organizations have begun to replace physical servers, including SharePoint servers, with virtualized machines. Virtualization of the 2007 wave of SharePoint Products and Technologies has been supported for some time, and many 2007 farms have been successfully virtualized over the years. With a new version of SharePoint, however, come new best practices and new techniques for virtualization of SharePoint. This session focuses specifically on SharePoint Server 2010 farm virtualization, and how components of a SharePoint 2010 environment can be successfully virtualized.
• Adam Bell (WA) - Introduction to PowerShell
• Tucker Hall (VIC)- Best Practices for Architecting, Deploying, and Optimizing SharePoint 2010
  SharePoint 2010 is poised to revolutionize how organizations connect their people, processes, and information. It will mark SharePoint's evolution from a server application to a full-fledged platform…the world's first "enterprise eco-system." In this session we will discuss how the changes coming in SharePoint 2010 will affect your platform deployment, administration, and performance optimization strategies. We will outline approaches for efficient management of both application lifecycles and multi-farm, geographically-dispersed environments, review best practices for optimizing storage resources, and conclude with an evaluation of options for consolidating and exposing your legacy content in the SharePoint 2010 platform.
• Peter Chow (WA) - Integrating SharePoint with Real-time Performance Data
  This session presents an approach to integrating real-time performance data from OSIsoft's PI system with an ITIL inspired IT Portal using SQL Server Reporting Services.
• Jonathan Wade (NSW) - Application Load Balancing and Web Optimisation for SharePoint
  Microsoft SharePoint is an example of a collaborative application; by definition, SharePoint users define how they interact with the system, who they interact with and how they thus load the infrastructure. As demand for this increased collaboration and richness of application grows so does the potential cost and user expectation. In this session learn how to; • Centralise web applications but still deliver a high level and consistent user experience • Deliver this performance without driving infrastructure costs up • Ensure uptime and availability of web applications
• Milan Gross (NSW) - Creating a Disaster Recovery Plan for MOSS 2007
  As more content gets stored in SharePoint, its importance to the organization grows. Is SharePoint part of your Disaster Recovery Plan? If it should be, and you're not sure where to start, this is the session for you. We'll cover numerous scenarios and the range of tools and techniques available to recover your data. Out-of-the-box capabilities and third-party solutions will be covered.
