    Here are a couple of things to watch for during All-Hands

    • Who is the host? - It's likely Marc Monday ( VP of Global Partner Strategy & Alliances )
    • Anyone not there - considering this LinkedIn post hinting at layoffs
    • Sage announces their half-year 2023 results earlier in the day - so we may get some type of rundown
    • It's probably early, but I'd be interested in anything they say about Sage Transform 2024
    • We are a little under five months away from the Sage licensing server requiring TLS 1.2 so we probably will hear a pitch about that

    I would love any comments on Ebiz - what does this mean for partners?

    They seemed pretty careful in describing the relationship. 
    Who knows whether this is a permanent thing or whether there might be a reconciliation?

    Based on comments from Mike Ritchie, eBiz may have problems in the future integrating with Sage 100.  Nothing imminent, and nobody knows when it might happen, and there are no plans as far as Mike knows to make that a reality.  I think eBiz is now a risk for Sage 100 users.

    Not really. One thousand attendees at Sage Partner Summit are considered sold out for a conference in Vegas.

    @Phil McIntosh @Brian Kelly @Wayne Schulz   One scenario may be Sage implementing security on the API / web service - maybe requiring a key or password or another mechanism for allowing an API  through the Sage gate.  If there is a viable revenue source they are probably working on it.
