So this post is not really about Convergence, just inspired by the last day. Of cause with the announcement of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 most of the...

First I want to say thanks to people who attended Michael Rosenørn and My session, about building a Role Center in 1 hour, at Convergence 2008 last week in Denmark.
