Next up is someone we have been trying to get to talk at Leeds Devops for ages and he's finally given into our nagging, Matt Skelton will be talking about Devops team structures - this may involve some audience participation and the use of hats.
We end the evening with our Configuration Management Shootout panel, we've assembled a group of evangelists, doers and really smart people to answer questions, we're delighted to introduce our panel:

We’re also pleased to announce that our sponsors Infinity Works will be providing us with refreshments for the evening.
