It would be a good half hour drive or more from Boston. That probably puts it out of reach for an evening event. If you want more information on it, though, Jen Goodman has visited it.

Does anyone have firsthand info?

Is this interesting enough for a planned event?

The only problem I had, was chosing which session I want to attend - the solution - make sure another attendee comes from your company so you can cover all the sessions that are of interest - that way you don't miss out. I am also pleased to report that with five Board Members who had not attended a January meeting before, of which three were attending their first ever XyUser board meeting, there was lots of new ideas and suggestions. I know that in the forthcoming meetings we will benefit from the influx of these new people. The Board is up to its maximum in size for the first time in a while which is a really positive sign for the future so thank you to all those who attended the recent meeting. The next meeting is held at the same time as the SPC meeting - looking forward to seeing acqaintances old and new then.

My first planning meeting was in 1995 and lasted 3 days as we tried to put together a conference for XPP, PDM and Contex. This year's conference appears to be the best we have planned to date with new material and old favorites. There is even the rumor that a Board Member from the largest "independent publisher of information and analysis products for professionals in business and government" will be presenting. Looking forward to seeing everyone in Boston in October. Chuck Dombek WKHealth As the “elder statesman” (or perhaps just elder) of the Board I can attest to a vast improvement in this process.

Much was accomplished and this year's Fall Conference promises to be one of the best ever! The conference will be held at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel in downtown Boston, 4-6 October. Mini-clinics, registration and a welcome reception will be on Sunday, October 3. Details will be available in late May, so mark your calendars now!
