When the economy was in tatters, everyone was poor-mouthing about available funds to attend conferences and to be fair, when the last conference was held, economic times weren't at their worst as yet.
Still attendance wasn't at a level that "I" would have put forth the effort to put together, but the reliable folks at RBTI did it anyway. I think if the RBase community, collectively would want a conference, then the voting should be with your pocketbook. If it were me, and it's not BTW, I wouldn't wait until weeks before the already scheduled event to start banging the drum to get people signed up. I would require spring registration with payment for a fall conference and set a break point of a minimum number of seats to be filled by a date certain, that failing, NO Conference. But that is just me. I just don't like to wait till the last minute to see how things are going to pan out. I like a plan that makes sense and works toward a good outcome for all concerned. I have enjoyed every minute of each conference I have been able to attend and have never left thinking I didn't get some benefit from it. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Karen > Tellef > Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2015 9:46 AM > To: RBASE-L Mailing List > Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Variable list view : show row numbers > > Bob will probably shoot me, but I'll use this opportunity to say this: > I wish that every RBase user > could spend a day at the factory that Bob works for!
