If there is a special Oracle-l meeting, I can drive up from San Jose. We usually have a very noisy, rowdy meeting at Chevy's (just opposite to Moscone) most every OOW (I missed last year though!)

Subject: RE: Oracle Open World
This is my first time at OOW. I am taking the Xtreme class on Rac
during the weekend. The 1 hours sessions look awesome as do the mini
demos, etc.
I will report back afterwards ... If the one hour session are good, I
plan on buying the $75.00 dvd package which has all the presentation on
them.
The keynote presentations don't interest me at all. I am trying to schedule thing during that time which I am finding hard to do. There are also alot of side things to do.. There is a vendor presentation on Monday night and there is an Apps meeting Monday morning.
To get the most of it... I am trying to schedule everything. I wish the scheduler would let you select alternate sessions.
I would like to be able to have handy alternates if
1) my gets cancelled or
2) It isn't good
so I can slip into another session that might be more focused at my companies needs.
Otherwise this year looks awesome to me. They even have were you can schedule a one on one consult with oracle. This is normally a $500/hour!
There are also hands on labs...
So I can't see how this isn't worth it... Unless you just go there to party and pick up freebies... Which I can see happening with alot of people.
Just my 2.5 cents worth
Kathy
BTW.... has any settle if any of us are getting together or not? Sunday works for me.
