CS Developer Competition prizes

The last Sunday took place the finalist’s dinner for the Microsoft Connected Systems Developer Competition in San Francisco. I am very proud to announce that SQL Service Broker Enhancements won two prizes, one BizTalk Server product prize and the Community Winner so that you will see SSB Enhancements in Teched 2006.

There are a lot of people that contributed to SSB Enhancements in different ways. The acknowledgments section in the documentation includes almost 30 people that in one way or another help me to improve the product. I specially would like to thanks 5 people that put a lot of effort in the final delivery of the first version of SSB Enhancements.

Carmen and Javier Mariscal: strongly believers in Two Connect as a company that can deliver strong solutions based on the newest technologies. Both help me every day to improve my knowledge and correct my deficiencies as an architect/consultant and spent a lot of time improving SSB Enhancements in different areas.

Didiosky Benitez and Michel Gonzalez: both developer leaders of SSB Enhancements that put a lot of time and effort in order to deliver the first version.

Enrique Gonzalez (Two Connect developer): who help me a lot with my poor GUI design skills developing the SSB XML Gateway Administration tool.

PS: Special thanks to Carmen for the “velitas”, definitely works.
