Oracle and the International Oracle Users Group-Americas are beating a co-operative path to just that - a separate user forum (aka IOUW) and OpenWorld (primarily a trade show with some education). The IOUG-A starts and independent conference in Dallas TX USA April 28 until May 2. The flavor of the event will be similar to the conference in Philly in September 1995.
