Another Novell blog/content site moves across to WordPress.

Novell Open Audio should be going live today with new content running from WordPress rather than a proprietry content management system.

I blogged on Novell Cool Blogs about doing an interview at Novell Open Audio.

The email invitation looked a little like this:

This was answered on a Novell Open Audio question:

So one other thing I was asked - what about ZENworks Success Stories.

Well - there is a Success Story database http://www.novell.com/success - and here is a huge list of public successes using ZENworks.

You probably want to copy and paste that url into your favourites.

I’ll be interviewed by Ted Haeger and Erin Quill tomorrow for Novell Open Audio.

I opened the question list up on Cool Blogs last week - and I’ve got about half a dozen things to cover specifically from the readers of Cool Blogs.

One other request that came in directly to my inbox - ezs@novell.com - is to ‘go behind the scenes’ at Open Audio. I’ll certainly have my camera and I’ll get some pictures and stories uploaded tomorrow evening. I’ll also have some really crunchy Doritos to pass around..

Next week I will be recording a slot for Novell Open Audio on ZENworks 7 Support Pack 1. That’s due for release in the very near future - and I’ll be talking about some of the new platforms we will support and a new feature that we’ll be rolling into the release.

I’ll also take the chance to answer any questions that you post on this blog - so here’s your chance.

Post your ZENworks related questions here - and I’ll select the best ones to answer on Open Audio next week. If you leave your name I’ll even give you a mention.

Looking forward to those questions. Remember - anything goes

A sign that Ted and crew have been working on sharing more inside tales from Novell - Open Audio now has an archive page.

It is the weekend after BrainShare - so I guess it’s going to be pretty slow for most of the Novell Cool Bloggers for a couple of days.

Personally - I had a great time this last week; running with some really entertaining and informative keynotes (Wednesday and Thursday), breakout sessions - as well as analyst and press events.

The highlight as always was meeting with customers and partners - you really are knowlegable, loyal - and remarkably well informed

One final piece of BrainShare that I need to plug are the ‘from the show floor’ podcasts from Ted Haeger and Novell Open Audio. Take a look here at the list of current short podcasts - Ted and the team seemed to have got behind the scenes and talked to everyone at BrainShare.

I recorded a series of podcasts for Novell Open Audio - the first part of this is now live!

This time round I give some background on ZENworks 7 Linux Management. Still to come - Asset Management, Patching and BrainShare 2006.

Enjoy!
