I guess the best 'rejection letter' you can possibly get is the accepted list 
coming out and not being able to find yourself anywhere on there.

Looking through the sessions, I see there are 120 sessions total.  46 are 
'Remedy' related, that's ITSM or ROD (38%) in some way or another.  Of those 
only 12 are not being done by BMCers (10%).  4 of those are listed as 
'Technical' (3%).  All 4 of them are directly related to ITSM (3 SRM, 1 CMDB).  
Nothing that's directly related to Remedy as a development platform, but as a 
platform to sell their OOTB tools....part of me is disappointed, but not 
surprised.

Both of the topics I submitted were of a technical nature, relating to Remedy, 
not ITSM...so, I guess that's likely why neither topic was selected for 
presentation....

and due due to the fact that I was counting on not paying the admission fees, 
I'm not going to be able to justify the expense to attend this 
year...so...maybe I'll do them anyway, but post them on my site instead so 
everyone can benefit instead of just the ones that attend Engage...who knows.

By doing our own thing we would simply be creating an overlay on ENGAGE.  Once 
we create the overlay we can customize and changes by BMC won't have an impact. 
 Except if they delete one of us in base, that will have an impact on the 
overlay.

Not if you do it from a hotel room though? I'll pitch in for a suite. We can 
set up a google hang out and a live tweet session.

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:
http://www.eventmgmt.aimia.com/events/bmc-engage-2014/custom-20-2bc888d975f2496db5d3f819b9735209.aspx

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)?

And with so many evening sessions, where does the Evening with 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.

You are certainly trusting Terry!

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.

ME:  Big Sigh…

Is that like the "good faith" deposit at a car dealer? Say goodbye to that $75!

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.

Is this even worth going to?
