Yeah I proposed this... Somekind of "genius bar" or something, maybe panel 
like, or small breakouts or something...
Could have been setup like a "mini community onsite" using Matt for this...

Maybe we could squat the booth location for this when it's not attended? If 
it's like wwrug, it's just opened for lunch / not a long time, we could use the 
place to do some small groups about a theme or something?

So, a mix between the "bird & the feathers", "genius bar", "community" and 
whatever?

We could even stream it live on the net so the others could see it (that could 
be a problem with BMC rules though).

I was willing to sponsor a technical/learning lab at the conference. Reached 
out to numerous people. Deaf ears. Oh well... I'm still going. Love networking 
(by networking I mean drinking) with you guys if you decide to go.

        The evening is still there, Tuesday from 6 to 8 PM:

        But that's weird... Since breakouts continue from 6 to 9 PM on 
tuesday... So or you go stalk the Engineers (and potentially miss 2 breakouts), 
or you attend the breakouts (and miss the candy)?

Engineering or the other evening activities go?  Will they even have them?

            Not impressed.  My first impress is welcome back BMC Marketing 
World.  We haven't missed you all these years.  Maybe I need to just let it 
soak in for a day or two?.?.?.

            Unless I am overlooking something it seems there are very few 
presentations by customers.

                    I’ll wait for the agenda and hope they extend the early 
bird rate.   I can see it now…

                    ME:  Hi Mr. Director, please spend thousands of dollars for 
me to be gone for almost a week for a conference where we have no idea what the 
content is.  There is an early bird discount!!!

                    DIR:  Come back when you have an agenda and a firm grasp on 
what you sessions are going to attend AND how much you are going to spend.

                        I believe early bird pricing expires July 31st.   So, if the 
agenda is out today or tomorrow, that is just "under the wire".

                        However, I had to make a call last week,  so I registered and 
paid for the conference with the understanding that I could de-register up to a certain 
date with a $75.00 "admin" fee.  Well, we'll see about that.  :-)

                        I’m glad I’m not alone in the trying to get approval 
for a conference that we have no idea what the content is… There should not be 
“early bird” pricing that expires before the detailed agenda is even published, 
in my opinion.

They missed one mark… in order to get a room you have to go through their conference desk. We are adults. We should be able to make our own reservations.
                        If the conference is more “sales” than technical, there 
is no way I can get approval.  I’ll be disappointed if they go back to the way 
it was before it became WWRUG!

                        I agree that our WWRUG friends are much better at 
communicating and giving people the information they need to decide, get 
approvals and make travel arrangements than BMC.  Let's just hope they don't 
completely miss the mark on this conference.
