Hi Barry,

Perry raises an interesting question as to the scope of the SQL conference being developer vs DBA oriented. Don't keep us hanging too long before posting the rest of the juicy details! < g >

>>I didn't want to say too much. That's why I only mentioned the cross-pollinate feature. I left it open-ended on purpose, just to give you an opening. Now that you mention other innovative things, do any of the other features of this conference include passes to the NO Jazzfest by chance????

>>Also, is the SQL conference a developer or DBA type event. If its developer, does that mean we're gonna be hanging out with a bunch of VB heads?

>>>Thought I'd better jump in here, since it's the beginning of the thread. <s> You're going to see some very innovative things with this conference besides the ability to freely (in every sense of the word) "cross-pollinate" with the SQL conference that will be running concurrently at the conference hotel. Stay tuned and "no flipping" for further announcements.

I don't think that you'll see too many years of 2 devcons though. But besides this one being in NO as a selling point, being able to choose from VFP or SQL Server topics will make it well worth the price.
