Re: Oracle Openworld or IOUG-A???

The biggest difference is OOW is run *entirely* by Oracle. IOUG is a = user run organization and attempts to maintain both an arms length = distance from Oracle and a close relationship. IOUG tends to have more = user and independent consultants present while OOW has a larger Oracle = presence. If possible, I try and attend both.
