MySQL APAC tour locations

Because I’m busy today, here’s what the announcement looks like (kudos to my colleagues Larry and Daniel for coming up with the following):

MySQL AB is very grateful for our very large Community, and it is important to us to meet and support our users! So we are happy to announce that Colin Charles, MySQL Community Relations Manager, APAC, will be visiting the following locations to meet with MySQL users.

Colin will be prepared to discuss the following with you:

  • How to start your own user group
  • Review of technical questions and issues
  • The MySQL product roadmap and future directions
  • MySQL product architecture

You can meet with Colin and speak to him one-on-one during following dates:

  • Kuala Lumpur / June 27- July 12, 2007
  • Singapore / July 4 – 6th, 2007
  • Tokyo / September 11-12th, 2007
  • Beijing / September 13-15th, 2007

We hope that you can make the time to meet with Colin. Please contact him directly at <colin@mysql.com> or call his Malaysia number at +6-012-204-3201. We expect the schedule to fill up quickly, so please contact Colin immediately if you want to get a time slot.

I’m also willing to speak at universities, user groups, etc. More technical oriented talks with regards to scaling, performance tuning, and benchmarks can also be entertained. And as is common in KL or Singapore, I’m ready for a mamak meetup session (if you’re wondering, read about mamak stalls from wikipedia), that’s usually casual enough, and will suit the after-work types.

    Good point Jace. Maybe I should aim for it around the time of foss.in in november? I realise even listing tokyo/beijing above is far too premature, but bangalore definitely should be on my to-visit list
