IOUG Get-together

Hi all,

Here's hoping this is in time for y'all who are visiting/presenting at IOUG. I believe most of you will be getting in either late Saturday or early Sunday. After completion of registration, etc., I guess we should be free on Sunday evening for a quick introduction so we know some names and faces. Most classes/seminars are over at 4:30PM. New speaker registration starts at 4:00PM. Dunno when it ends, but surely before the Speaker orientation at Room 29 which starts at 5:00 and ends at 6:00PM.

Since a number of us are speaking (as well as being new to speaking) and will be attending this evening session, may I suggest we all meet at around 6:00(ish) PM on Sunday at Room 29 for introductions? A number of listers should have gathered by then after the Speaker orientation meeting completes. We can then plan for a longer one at a dinner later... This early meeting will ensure that we all get to know names/faces/events before everything really revs up.

A list so far, including papers/seminars:

1. Rachel Carmichael - How not to be a DBA - Mon, Apr 15, 2002 @ 4:15 PM - 5:15 PM Rm 26A
2. Joe Testa - LogMiner Wed, Apr 17, 2002 @ 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM, Rm 32A
3. Susan McClain (presenting with Joe) - Data guard Tue, Apr 16, 2002 @ 4:15 PM - 5:15 PM, Rm 30E
4. Mike Bates
5. Tim Gorman - Seminar:Advanced Troubleshooting (Sunday), Paper: CBO (Monday)
6. Steve Wonder
7. Charlie Mengler (Local_at_San Diego) - Maybe Charlie can suggest a nice place for a later meeting?

24. Kevin Loney - Indexing, Wed, Apr 17, 2002 @ 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM, Rm 32B

This is so that you can plan to attend (and support :) presentations from the first-time speakers.

In summary, we will try and get together on SUNDAY at 6:00PM outside Room 29, and plan for a longer dinner/meeting elsewhere at another time. I will email the ones not in the list privately just for info.

If I have missed anyone - apologies, and please let me know! Charlie, can I request you to think about a nice place to meet later?

Thanks all!
