The conferences are highly regarded, and attract some first
class presenters. Also, the organization has been associated
with some interesting and useful initiatives.
However, in my not particularly humble opinion, they
have several times shown poor judgement and knowledge
regarding virus issues, and should not be regarded as an
authority in the area.
