As you may know, the session catalog for VMWorld 2012 came out a few days ago. I just took a few moments to peruse the catalog and pick out a list of sessions I though sounded interesting. I still need to prioritize and weed out this list before session registration begins. I will also need to reconcile the sessions I attend with my desire to complete a lot more of the hands on lab sessions than I did at VMWorld 2010. I’m hoping to be more of a lab rat this time around!
