WWRUG13: A month away!

[Doug Blair]

** Hello Listers! Well *of course* I am getting excited! My flight for San Jose leaves just 4 weeks from right now, and I am really looking forward to seeing you all once again and (more important, really) gathering enough evidence of dignified conference behavior to convince my managers that I have learned something new.  WWRUG13 is September 30 through October 4, 2013, at The Fairmont San Jose, in San Jose, California, USA. I'll get to the point. Actually two points today.  We hope that by now you have made your conference registration and hotel reservations. If you haven't yet, here are two things to consider:  WWRUG has made arrangements with the conference hotel for a specified number of rooms at a discounted rate. We guarantee the sale and they guarantee the price. That deal ends on September 6 (a week from today), after which, if there are rooms left available, they will be booked at the normal rates. Big city in Silicon Valley. You can do the math. You can also go to  http://wwrug13.com/reservations.html ... to get the discount while it is available, sooner the better.  The second point is that as we get closer to the conference date there are gradual price increases, Call it the capitalist law of supply and demand for a rare commodity if you will, but after today we are through with rewarding prudent pre-purchasers :-). You can see the registration fee table at  http://wwrug13.com/registrations.html ... and don't say you haven't seen it before. The current registration fee expires M-O-N-D-A-Y, so prompt registration is encouraged. And for many of us, Monday is a holiday. Of course, if you would prefer to register at the last minute you are free to do so. Well, not exactly "free," but you could do it that way. You'll be happier if you click through now. And about WWRUG13 being a "rare commodity?" There's only one like this. WWRUG13 includes more than 100 breakout sessions, exceptional keynotes, intimate liaison with application designers, engineers, BMC product managers and dozens of vendors in a BMC/Remedy/ITIL focused Technology Showcase. This combination of people and technology and knowledge and camaraderie (and Twinkies!) happens only once a year. Rare indeed! See you in San Jose!
