It looks like I'll be taking a trip to Redmond to take part in a Java to .NET migration workshop. Of course the whole thing is covered by an NDA so that's about it. Maybe I'll find out the real answer to the question "Why .NET?" that I wrote about on kuro5hin.

An experiment. The Java to .NET evalgalist who's running this workshop is called David Weller. The usual google search turns up the fact that he has a blog. Interesting, I wonder if he, or Microsoft, will do similar searches on the attendees? At work we tend to search on google for anyone who comes for an interview, or arrives to take up some position or other, which recently of course hasn't been many people!
