VoIP & Communications Developers - We've heard you...

2008-03-28 11:02:07 by Editor in VoIP & Gadgets Blog

We at TMC have heard the cries from developers for a stronger development track at Internet Telephony Conference & Expo to focus on more technical development-related topics. As a developer myself with a background in computer engineering, I discussed with Rich Tehrani and others the need for a strong developers track at ITEXPO.

In May of 2007, TMC actually held a separate show called Communications Developer Conference (Comm Dev 07), which was fairly successful for such a 'niche' show. Although it was successful, we realized it made much more sense to co-locate Communications Developer Conference at ITEXPO, TMC's flagship IP communications conference that draws 15,000 attendees each year and no doubt dozens if not hundreds of developers.

With that said, I am happy to report today that TMC is bringing the Communications Developer Conference to ITEXPO!

Without tooting our horn too much, this makes TMC's ITEXPO the #1 educational IP communications conference for developers - especially when you consider the following:

ITEXPO hosts the trixbox FtOCC (Fonality trixbox Open Communications Certification) classes based on the open source trixbox IP-PBX. I wrote about how successful these classes were and how one trixbox FToCC class member won the car raffle! Guess geeks do get lucky sometimes.
Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 training classes @ITEXPO - OCS 2007 is a complex product and it has a lot of potential for developers to code their business apps to work tightly with OCS 2007. As far as I know, ITEXPO was the only conference to hold OCS 2007 classes.
Stay tuned for info on other open source training initiatives at the show.

Add all this together along with the co-location of Comm Dev 08 with ITEXPO and there is no reason why developers shouldn't attend the next ITEXPO. It's taking place September 16-18, 2008 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. I'll certainly be there and might even sit on some classes myself to rub elbows with my fellow developer geeks.
