You could have this conference in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay or MGM
Grand hotel for much less than you are paying. The airline
transportation from anywhere in the world is much cheaper. Also, I
could attend and you would probably attract many other people who
would go just to visit Las Vegas.

We’ve opened registration for the Southwest Fox/Xbase++ 2015
conferences. Super-Saver Registration, which saves you $125, is
available only through June 30th, so don’t wait.
As we’ve explained before, putting on a conference is a risky
endeavor. Conference centers require a guaranteed minimum income to
block the dates of a conference; for a conference like Southwest Fox
and Southwest Xbase++, that minimum is in the tens of thousands of
dollars. We have to confirm our commitment to the conference center by
July 2nd and need your support by July 1st to make that commitment.
In addition, as we recently said, if Southwest Fox Super-Saver
registration is strong enough, we’ll add some speakers and topics.
Here is what you can expect from Southwest Fox and Southwest Xbase++:
- Two simultaneous conferences for the price of one.
- Terrific selection of sessions from great presenters.
- A total of 25 regular conference topics between the two conferences,
5 pre-conference sessions to choose from, and a keynote to pack your
days with learning opportunities and inspiration.
- White papers from every session (mandated by the organizers) so you
can read about sessions you can’t fit into your schedule, or review
material you saw at the conference when you return home.
- Lunch Thursday if you register for two pre-conference sessions. (You
can also purchase lunch Thursday at our cost.)
- Lunch Friday and Saturday for all attendees.
- Dinner Friday night.
- A free pre-conference session if you register by June 30th.
So please register soon, and encourage every Visual FoxPro and Xbase++
developer you know to register, too.
