Horizont User Day 2007
28th September 2007
The fourth biennial Horizont User Day took place on the 26th September 2007.
There was a great turnout for the Horizont User Day last Wednesday with over 40 delegates there, representing 15 different companies with people from as far a field Dublin, Edinburgh, London and Norwich. We hope that you found it a useful and relevant day.
Barclays excelled themselves this year by not only being marvellous hosts, but by also by the user presentation providing a very clear insight into why they use TWS/Audit to help them comply with the Sarbanes/Oxley legislation. Bob Gribben take a bow. We have heard a rumour that Bob has already been invited to repeat the talk at the Tivoli User Group. A star is born.
All the presentations and complete up to date versions of the Horizont software, documentation and information were on the CD given out at the User Day, if anyone needs more copies please get back to us. We will also put the presentations on the website and send you the links.
The usual suspects - Dean Harrison from IBM, Karl Huber, Helmut Ziegler & Radek Svitak from Horizont.
A couple of future dates for your diary:-
We would like to remind everyone about the GSE UK Conference 2007 . This will be held at in Kenilworth on Tues October 30th & Weds October 31st 2007. We will be exhibiting there with Horizont so if you have further questions about Xinfo or any of our other software Karl will be on hand to explain.

Breaststrokes 1.5 km swim for Cancer Research UK
On the 1st of September an intrepid team of distinctly amateur swimmers
managed 1.5 km in Lake Windermere for charity.
Follow this link to the photos of the 1500
metre "Breaststrokes'" open water swim. The team, consisting of Sarah
Davies, Christine Peacock, and Jon Olley, has raised over £650 sponsorship
so far, but any additional funds will be gratefully received. All the money
raised is going to Cancer Research UK.
Sponsored Sloth

We have had a good response over the last year with our request for people to take the email version of our Newsletters and to our efforts to support Sloth habitat in South America. Over the past few weeks we have been calculating how much to contribute to the Sloth fund for the last year .
So we have been able to sponsor 5 acres of rainforest. We posted our certificate on the website here. For more information please visit Rainforest Concern .
