Many of you already know the application SAP Mentor Outreach published by Thorsten Franz about 6 months ago. This application is designed basically to “help SAP Community to connect o SAP Mentors” as Thorsten wrote. Recently Bjoern Weigand and John Moy published the iOS version porting for iPhone and iPad.
What is still missing? An application that would be useful for all the other mobile devices; few weeks ago I decided to think about a porting of this application in JQuery Mobile and today I’m proud to present SAP Mentor Outreach cross mobile version. I’m just a bit in late for TechEd Bangalore but in time for TechEd Madrid.

Less than 3 weeks and SAP Inside Track Milan 2011 will be live.
This will be the first SCN Community event organized in my country and it will be a great opportunity to meet in person many SCN members.
Event in details
The response from Italian community goes over any expectation, we have already more than 70 members from 23 different companies, 4 SAP Mentors (yes I’m in 
) and a fully session schedule. Sessions are organized using the new DemoJam like formula as explained in this blog by 
Sergio Ferrari; 17 sessions hosted by 14 speakers covering lot of different topics.
I want to underline that this will be an international event with people coming from 3 different countries (Italy, Germany and Spain).

Finally I have an internet connection and the possibility to publish this post, well I should say “the Post”, because this is the most important post that I have ever written.
On 16th August I proudly joined into the SAP Mentor Wolfpack. Read the official blog post on SDN.
Do you know who is an SAP Mentor?
This is the definition given on SAP Mentor official wiki
SAP Mentors are the top community influencers of the SAP Ecosystem. Most of the ~100 mentors work for customers or partners of SAP. All of them are hands-on experts of an SAP product or service, as well as excellent champions of community-driven projects.
- Hands-on expert in an SAP product or service
- Collaborative attitude
- Good communicator
- Preferably working at a partner or customer of SAP
- Interested in improving products and services of SAP as well as the relationship of SAP with its customers, partners and prospects
- Proactive engagement
If you don’t hit all 6 points, you can compensate by being exceptional in the other 5.
It’s an honor to be awarded with such significant acknowledgment an I will do my best to deserve it. For sure now I have a incredible motivation to continue my activities on SAP and beyond.
I love my lemon!
