		<description><![CDATA[<p>I had a great surprise at the weekend.</p>
<p>I was delighted to discover my name of the <a href="http://blogs.vmware.com/vmtn/2012/04/announcing-vexpert-2012-title-holders.html">list of vExperts for 2012.</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>What is the vExpert?<br />
		From vmware.com &#8230; &#34;The annual VMware vExpert title is given to individuals who have significantly contributed to the community of VMware users over the past year. The title is awarded to individuals (not employers) for their commitment to sharing their knowledge and passion for VMware technology above and beyond their job requirements&#34;.</p>
