Visual Studio 2005 Dev Con

Microsoft is running a set developer conferences thoughout the central US, this is a fee based event, but the cost is low and the value should be high.  The official marketing stuff follows, so see if your city is on the list!   Also, I helped define the VSTS track, so if you go and have feedback, let me know your thoughts.
