Thanks, Axton. As also mentioned in my original E-mail, I was attempting to be proactive in letting the larger community know of the changes when I found out they were posted to the UserWorld web site. I just copy/pasted the language from the web site into my message as a convenience so that folks on plain-text E-mail readers could see the info as well without having to go to the URL. My (limited) knowledge is that an E-mail was sent to some partners and internal BMC employees. A more formal message is most likely going out to registered guests soon. I suppose that I could have waited until the formal E-mail was set out to point folks to the UserWorld site - or waited until an ARSList member stumbled upon it and then posted "Hey, they rescheduled BMC UserWorld and didn't tell us!" - but I thought it more community responsible to post the link to the preliminary information as soon as it was publicly available. My apologies if that has caused dissatisfaction due to the informal method used. Thanks, -David J. Easter Sr. Product Manager, Solution Strategy and Development BMC Software, Inc.
