May I also add that you can also get to meet some of the luminaries in this list at IOUG (Gaja, Tim, Cary, Rachel are regulars) and have a lot of one-on-one as well as panel discussions that take up real-life issues (as opposed to marketing fluff). John Kanagaraj
-----Original Message----- Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 12:33 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Add to that the cost of getting there (Orlando FL for 2003), transportation to/from the airport hotel (4-6 nights at around $200/night depending on what hotel you stay at) some meals (lunch is usually provided, some evening events include enough food for dinner) That said, I hope that doesn't scare your company off. IMHO, this is the best investment you can make in your DBA's. (I can't speak for developers.) Both years I've gone, I was frustrated because there were more sessions that I wanted to attend that I could since they were at the same time. This year, there were no sessions that I attended that I didn't learn something from. Many of the sessions generated a list of "to do as soon as I get back to the office". Hope to see you there.

I should have mentioned I have checked the IOUG page, but can not find the actual cost of attending. Or is it FREE to IOUG members, and therefore, I need to have my company pay for memberships for a couple of people to attend? thanks!
