You are certainly trusting Terry!
I’ll wait for the agenda and hope they extend the early bird rate. I can see
it now…
ME: Hi Mr. Director, please spend thousands of dollars for me to be gone for
almost a week for a conference where we have no idea what the content is.
There is an early bird discount!!!
DIR: Come back when you have an agenda and a firm grasp on what you sessions
are going to attend AND how much you are going to spend.
ME: Big Sigh…

Is that like the "good faith" deposit at a car dealer? Say goodbye to that $75!
Hehe

I believe early bird pricing expires July 31st. So, if the agenda is out today or
tomorrow, that is just "under the wire".
However, I had to make a call last week, so I registered and paid for the conference
with the understanding that I could de-register up to a certain date with a $75.00
"admin" fee. Well, we'll see about that. :-)

I’m glad I’m not alone in the trying to get approval for a conference that
we have no idea what the content is… There should not be “early bird” pricing
that expires before the detailed agenda is even published, in my opinion.

They missed one mark… in order to get a room you have to go through their conference desk. We are adults. We should be able to make our own reservations.
If the conference is more “sales” than technical, there is no way I can get
approval. I’ll be disappointed if they go back to the way it was before it
became WWRUG!

I agree that our WWRUG friends are much better at communicating and giving
people the information they need to decide, get approvals and make travel
arrangements than BMC. Let's just hope they don't completely miss the mark on
this conference.

I still haven't seen much of what is being presented other that lots of
marketing.
Is this even worth going to?
