I dont think we ever interacted but I had a fair idea of Vmlogix since I was part of the evaluation team in my organization for this tool :). Industry wise there are not many/much efforts on these processes and I personally think that its a great area of growth, sooner or later we would need to use these tools. I am personally a great fan of these systems.

I would read your article on your blog.

Also, if it helps to spread the word about Vmlogix through few small posts (which can further link to bigger posts on your blog) then you are welcome to write here.

Very nice post, and I can immediately resonate with a lot of things you write about over here.

You do mention virtualization in passing in the lab content — would like to draw your attention to virtual lab automation (VLA) solutions. Check out http://www.vmlogix.com - LabManager helps you leverage virtualization and centralize your lab operations and processes. Your lab will be a very happy environment with this solution, I can guarantee that

I’ve also written quite a bit in this area - check out http://blog.vmlogix.com (would love to hear your comments here!)
