Registration is now open for the National UK #VMUG Usercon. If you couldn’t make it to VMworld Barcelona last month, then this is your chance to pick up some of the latest VMware news right on your doorstep (assuming you live near the National Motorcycle Museum, near the NEC Birmingham). Failing that it’s a relatively short drive from most areas of the UK..
