They should just have it in Houston. There is a ton of conference space and hotel available. I am sure they could take over a hotel in the area of their building! Houston in October is actually very nice!

Yours runs by calendar year. Ours is from October to October. Federal is the same. Some states are July to July. BMC was put in a no win situation. They are trying to make the best of it. Maybe those of us that had registered can get some of the shirts that they had made up. An interesting souvenir for an non-event.

For example, I already paid for registration, air travel, etcl, but if the hotel is next year, it would come off of my 2009 budget rather than my 2008 budget. If I wanted to move money from this year to next I'd have to escalate that up to at least the CIO if not higher. ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Guillaume Rheault [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, August 30, 2008 12:40 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: BMC UserWorld Miami is being rescheduled ** The other thing that BMC needs to consider is this. Assuming the 2008 conference is not feasible in November and December, because of Thanks Giving and Christmas holidays, if BMC does two conferences in 2009, let's say the first one in January, and the second one in fall, how are you going to call them? 2009a and 2009b? Which brings the interesting question, how could somebody justify to their manager going to 2 conferences for the same vendor on the same year? Seems to me right there you would split the conference attendance in half, as I don't see many people attending two 2009 BUWs. -Guillaume -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) on behalf of Brian Goralczyk Sent: Fri 08/29/08 2:41 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: BMC UserWorld Miami is being rescheduled I would have to agree with that logic. Might as well push it back a few months from January so they can release information abou the next version.
