<p>I need your help. Next Friday (December 13), I shall interview Perry Clarke, Microsoft CVP for Exchange development (in other words, Perry is responsible for every bit of code written for Exchange, both on-premises and cloud). I have known Perry for many years and have quite a few questions to ask him about the future direction of Exchange and other issues, but I thought that I'd open it up to the Exchange community and invite you to submit questions that you'd like me to ask Perry.</p><p>I'm not looking for leading statements like "I think Exchange 2013 quality is crap" or "Microsoft is driving everyone to the cloud"; I want well-reasoned questions that dive to the core of an issue and are preferably backed up with hard fact. In short, I need your thinking caps to be firmly in place before you pose a question.</p><p>When you come up with a question that you want me to ask, write it out. Then go have a coffee or whatever drink moves your creative side and then come back and have a look at the question again. And if you think that the question is still valid, then submit it as a reply to this post and I'll add it to the mix of potential questions for the 60-minute interview. I give no guarantee that I will use any or all of the questions that flow in but I will read every one and they will form part of my research and preparation for our chat.</p><p>When the interview is over I will write it up and publish the questions that I ask plus Perry's response in a post to this blog. My plan is to do this on Tuesday, December 17.</p><p><a href="http://windowsitpro.com/blog/what-question-would-you-ask-microsofts-exchange-development-supremo">Keep reading...</a></p>
