This was a particularly fun event. MSIX was announced as the new packaging format and demand for information on the topic was high. As one of the very first webinars on the topic, I was fortunate to get Rod Trent and Tim Mangan to join me.

There were some technical struggles with part 1, both with handling animations in slides and even accessing the event during the EMEA session. That learning curve came with a move to a new webinar delivery platform, part 2 went a lot more smoothly.
