Like several others, I heard the good news from Microsoft last week that I’m a SharePoint MVP for another year. I’m really pleased to get the award again, as it’s nice to be recognized by Microsoft for what you’ve done. I find it useful (to me anyway!) to have a bit of reflection on what I’ve been up to for the last year. The big things were probably:
- A big re-write of my popular SharePoint Content Deployment Wizard tool, to support added functionality such as scripted deployments
- Release of the SharePoint Config Store framework, for storing configuration values in SharePoint development
- Release of the sister project, the SharePoint Language Store framework, for helping to build multi-lingual SharePoint sites
- Speaking at the European SharePoint Best Practices Conference on deployment approaches/best practices for SharePoint sites
- Being on various expert panels at different events (such as the Best Practices Conference)
- Other speaking gigs, like my Lessons learnt/top 5 tips for building WCM sites in SharePoint session to a record-breaking audience at the UK SharePoint user group
- 31 new articles and answers to over 100 questions/comments on this blog
A busy year to be sure. I just want to say thanks to everybody that went to the trouble of passing on their thanks or feedback on some of this stuff – I really appreciate it..
