This is a re-print of an ISUG announcement from a couple of weeks ago by Mike Harrold:
The International Sybase User Group, an independent association that represents thousands of users of Sybase products in more than 60 countries around the world, is pleased to announce the appointment of Peter Dobler as ISUG Partner Director.
Helping to define and forge a new level of interconnection between ISUG, Sybase and its partners, Peter brings his wide ranging industry experience and his competency for openness to ISUG’s integrated partner-driven service offerings.
Running his successful Dobler Consulting business from a Florida business headquarters, Peter’s company plays an invaluable role as a key Sybase partner in terms of sales, consulting and education. Peter also runs the Tampa Bay Sybase User Group, which has steadily grown under his stewardship since its formation a year ago.
“Peter’s grass roots level understanding of the Sybase and ISUG business models stands future and existing partners in good stead in terms of the support they will receive,” said Bryan Enochs, ISUG President.
“Peter has a voracious appetite for information-sharing and is well known for authoring whitepapers and articles for Sybase based on his field experience, including the Oracle-to-Sybase migration guide produced when ASE 15 was released. ISUG is lucky to have him now step into the role of Partner Director,” added Enochs.
As Peter now assumes his formally defined position, ISUG and Sybase partners throughout the industry ecosystem can look forward to even more proactive levels of engagement, interconnection and partnership at all levels.
Speaking on the news of his recent appointment, Peter said, “Partners are a very important support structure for any member organization, especially for ISUG. A strong and active partner structure will provide extra benefits for the ISUG members and in return the partners will gain market presence and recognition. This is a win-win situation for both the ISUG partners and the ISUG members. Dedicating more resources and attention to the partner program will benefit everybody.”

Please join us on August 11th for our next meeting “The Future of PowerBuilder” which will include a PowerBuilder roadmap update, technical presentations from versions 12.5 and beyond, and a round-table focus group session on PowerBuilder strategy.
Our meeting will begin with an opportunity to network with your peers, followed by some brief introductions and any business the group needs to conduct. Then we’ll move swiftly to the first of our technical presentations delivered by Sybase Rockstar, Dave Fish who will be LIVE in person!
PowerBuilder 12.5 has a lot of new features for both .NET and Win32 developers. In this session Dave will demonstrate the new .NET targets for PowerBuilder Assemblies, WCF Services, and Custom Visual User Objects (CVUOs) as .NET Assemblies. John will also demonstrate several new WPF DataWindow enhancements, and how PowerBuilder applications can call RESTful web services. Win32 developers will learn how they can update the look of their applications with new DataWindow enhancements as well as see new features for PowerBuilder Classic controls.
Up next will be Sue Dunnell, the PowerBuilder Product Manager who will present the roadmap for PowerBuilder with focus on the soon-to-be-released PowerBuidler 12.5 as well as the next release (tentatively 15) and beyond. As part of this session, Dave will give a sneak preview of enhancements planned for PowerBuilder 15, including the HTML5 DataWindow, and Dockable window support for Win32 PowerBuilder applications.
Afterwards we’ll have a round-table discussion about PowerBuiler. This session is aimed at all PowerBuilder users and is your chance to share your thoughts about the current direction for PowerBuilder and to give direct feedback to the PowerBuilder Product Manager on how Sybase can better position Sybase for the future.
Sue will also be available following this for individual one-on-one/small group sessions where you can sit down with her to discuss PowerBuilder needs that are specific to your business (and perhaps confidential). These are a great opportunity for your management to talk directly to the PowerBuilder product manager! You can register for one-on-sessions during the meeting registration process.
This event is free to all attendees.
