Any idea what it costs, or cost last time.

>I have attended two WhilFests, aka the Great Lakes Great Database Workshop (GLGDW) in Milwaukee. They were both fine conferences and outstanding values, particularly for those of us in the Midwest U.S., due to lower travel costs. The speaker list compares well with any other Fox conference. And as a bonus, you usually get to see Whil's "User Unfriendly Interfaces" presentation (no guarantee he'll do another one in 2000, but we can hope).

>BTW, Whil's website (http://www.hentzenwerke.com/conference/great_lakes_2000.htm) lists the tentative dates for this year's GLGDW as April 15-20, not October. Steven Black's site (below) also gives the April 15-20 dates, the "October" in the title notwithstanding.

>For anyone thinking of flying to the conference, you may want to compare the cost of flying to Milwaukee with the cost of flying to Chicago and then renting a car and driving to Milwaukee, which is about 90 minutes North of O'Hare airport (on a good traffic day < g >). Milwaukee has its own airport, but sometimes flights to major cities like Chicago can be cheaper. Of course, now I'm probably in trouble with the Milwaukee Chamber of Commerce for not promoting their airport...
