I've been chatting with Charley about the SeConf and I see that that will
have two primary audiences. One will be the Selenium developers and the
other will be Selenium users. Since it is in the mutual interest of both
BrowserMob and SauceLabs, I think their will be a big push for presentations
that will show people how to use Selenium and that they will be discouraging
Watir material that might have the effect of putting doubts into the minds
of people who might otherwise be disposed to go with Selenium. This is my
guess, partly based on the dynamics of the principals.

I don't want to fight this, but would like to take advantage of the fact
that we'll have most of the Watir development team in one place. So rather
than fight for space in the official SeConf conference for Watir-specific
technical insidery stuff -- I would rather just set up something on the
side.

Sounds like Sunday April 3rd will be a good day for this. I would like to
make this an open meeting to other Watir users and Selenium developers and
users, but the Watir development team would set the agenda.
