I am in the final planning states of this 23,100 mile expedition. I will start a survey next week to keep track of who I can visit and chat with while down there on vacation. I feel it is only fair since many of my Kiwi and Aussie friends have come to the US to attend Autodesk University and some of them did it on their own dime. Some of my top beta customer beta sites come from NZ and Australia and are very active and great to chat with. I finally get to wear my New Zealand All Blacks shirt in New Zealand.
Schedule UPDATED 4/19/06I will be in the Southern Hemisphere visiting New Zealand and Australia in May 2006. While I am there I would like to meet with some customers and discuss various topics or meet with a local user group. If this sounds like something that interests you please complete the below survey.
