>>>Now that Devcon 97 is over I would like to know what those who attended thought of the conference. Please respond by giving a rating of 0 for poor to 10 for could not be better. I would like to have the folowing areas rated:
>>>
>>>The Conference itself: (what you think of the sessions)
>>>The facilities: (what you think of the hotel, not your room but how well the hotel managed the conference)
>>>Your return on investment: (did you receive enough value from the conference to justify the total cost)
>>>
>>>
>>>I will go first since I started it:
>>>
>>>The Conference itself: 7
>>>The facilities: 5
>>>Your return on investment: 8
>>
>>You may have biased my reponse slightly (by me seeing yours), but not much. I will say 8,5,8. Several times I found nothing but empty coffee urns between sessions, that was my biggest hotel gripe...

Yes, it was a tad congested (s), but this was my first Devcon, so I thought maybe it was normal. I took to waiting until the crowds died down...
