Re:keynote speakers
Perhaps my memory is faulty, but I clearly remember
the keynote speakers being listed in the brochure that went out, I thought, a couple of months ahead of time. -- Thanks, Brad White "Nick Hodges (TeamB)" < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >wrote in message QuoteOn Wed, 6 Aug 2003 09:22:48 -0500, "Brad White" < XXXX@XXXXX.COM > |

Quote"Brad White" < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >wrote in message But, yes. My boss is on the fence about going. He is a manager, not a developer, and has never been to a BorCon. But we are, by fits and starts, trying to become a more professional development shop. So, he is intrigued by the management track. The keynote speakers by themselves are certainly not enough, but I need all the leverage I can get. Perhaps combined with an idea of what the "selected products" are. One option might be posting who we have at some late date before the early deadline and the rest after you have all. BTW, I'm assuming that there will be a discount on D8 even if it hasn't been released yet. IIRC, you normally give out the products right there, but I don't see why it can't be like pre-ordering. -- Thanks, Brad White |

Re:keynote speakersQuoteJust a little question - do you think that the industry keynote speakers are announcements. On the other hand, I do believe it adds to the overall value to the conference. Robert Love |

Re:keynote speakersQuoteJust a little question - do you think that the industry keynote speakers thoroughly enjoyed Guy Kawasaki's talk a couple of years ago, but was disappointed with Gosling's talk last year. This also (oddly) seems to parallel my general impression of the whole conference. Bruce |
