This is about a free 2 day mini-conference at CMU sponsored by IBM 
developer works.  If you're a developer, it could be kinda interesting.

The developerWorks team at IBM is holding a 2-day mini conference
(*_FREE!_*)  at CMU on June 25 - 26.  We would very much appreciate your 
help in getting  the word out about this opportunity to participate in 
hands-on workshops that are packed with information about Rational 
software.  Our experts will explain in detail each topic as the attendees 
walk through the demonstrations themselves in a hands-on lab environment. 
There are 6 topics from which each attendee can choose. The URLs for 
descriptions and downloading presentations are at the end of this email.

Please forward this note or the attached pdf invitation flyer to your
contacts who would benefit from some in-depth hands-on workshops that span 
the software development cycle from Requirements documenting; 
Architecture, Design and Construction; Testing, Security, and Change and 
Release Management.  Also included is a workshop on rich projects that the 
Eclipse community is developing.

We hope to see you and your colleagues at the event!  You can register at...
