Calling all real-world Software Delivery
Heroes
Every day, the Rational User heroically teams
with IBM Rational to combat the evil forces
of information isolation, data overload, poor
processes, and barriers to distance and
language. In our eyes, this makes you more
than just Ordinary Heroes -- it makes you. .
. R-Heroes! But, we know that winning in
today's geographically distributed world
takes more than just individual heroics. It
takes Collaboration! Effective Organizational
Ability! Teamwork! Once again, it's time to
join the League of Extraordinary Software
Developers at the IBM Rational Software
Development Conference 2008, June 1 - 5, at
the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel.
Yes, Rational User, look to the skies! The
R-Signal is sweeping across the clouds with
the challenge: R-U Ready To Save The Day?
