This cycle I preferred to pick Summit over PTG as I think it's harder to meet users and operators than it is to meet developer – with whom I work with all years on IRC or mailing-lists. Cherry on the cake, by doing this I'm not entitled to a free ATC pass to attend the summit. I would have to spend $300 to attend a conference for a project I wrote code for during the last 5 years. Sigh. Our developer community shrunk this last year and I cannot envision the benefit of spreading it over 4 events a year.
