If you have been following Clemens blog, you know he is now taking some much deserved time off and travelling throughout Asia.  He has asked me, Bart, to post this message on his behalf advising that he does not expect to have internet access until the end this week, at which time he will post the samples, etc from his TechEd Malaysia talks.

Although we had an excessive first night here in Kuala Lumpur (getting strangers drunk on arrival seems to be some sort of tradition around here), that wasn't the reason for me showing up 15 minutes late for my first talk about "Building Distributed .NET Applications" this morning at 9:00am (then 9:15am) here at TechEd Malaysia. The notification about session slot change somehow either just didn't find its way into my inbox or it fell victim to the Sobig.F mail sweeping. Whatever happened... it seems all people in a full room did indeed patiently wait for me while I rushed from the hotel to the session room. Thank you! Being late to a session at a conference was definitely a (bad) "first" for me and is doubleplusungood to happen to a German. The session ended up going really well and I will post the related samples tomorrow together with the sample for the session on aspects.

The second session was a fun chalk talk with Tim Huckaby about the same topic area. As the lead example for a loosely-coupled, distributed system I used dasBlog and its interactions with other blog engines and moved on to explain how the architectural mesaures taken there could be used for more "traditional" enterprise software scenarios. Core message: asynchronous is good!

I will be speaking at TechEd Malaysia 2003 in Kuala Lumpur. My talks aren't on the published agenda yet, but they will be. Topics: Building Distributed .NET Applications using ASMX, Enterprise Services and Remoting as well as an analysis of where AOP does and does not work.
