Packing my bags ready to get going to ILUG 2008 in Dublin, and really looking forward to what should be another great event. Can I just say kudos to RIM as they are shiny bright Platinum Sponsors again this year, in other words they really help make ILUG happen.

OK, looking  at the agenda the BlackBerry highlights to catch are:

Wednesday - "Automating User and Group Management for Domino, Active Directory and BlackBerry. Or 'how to save a buttload of work" - Bill Buchan will take you through how HADSL specialise in the automation, integration and delegation of all user and group management across Lotus Domino, Active Directory and BlackBerry. This means that you can delegate all your day-to-day user management to someone on the helpdesk (or even HR!), confident that only what YOU allow will be implemented, whilst increasing security.

Thursday - "Taking Lotus Collaboration beyond the office on your BlackBerry Smartphone" - Valerie Wang, Product Manager for IBM technologies at RIM will be talking about how you can use the BlackBerry development platform to mobilise your enterprise applications as well as how the close collaboration between IBM Lotus and RIM have led to even more Lotus collaboration and communication tools such as Sametime and Connections, available for BlackBerry smartphones. I saw Valerie present at Lotusphere and she was very good.

Friday - "Ask the BES Adminstrator" - Jen Ortiz of RIM will be back at ILUG again this year for a highly interactive session which will give you the opportunity to ask questions, hear about Best Practice and see a BES in action - so bring along your questions and devices.

And of course some other Notesberry people will be there too, like Paul Mooney and Tim Davis. Plus a crew from RIM too.

So hope you can make it, and see you there if you can.
