Comments on: User Group Dependency on Conferences http://rickschummer.com/blog2/2009/08/user-group-dependency-on-conferences/ Shedding some light on topics of software development, Visual FoxPro, saving our planet, paying it forward, and anything else I find important enough to share.

CFUDG and the members have always been a strong supporters of Southwest Fox, and hopefully vice-versa. I just thought it was a good opportunity to express some of my opinion on the subject and tell others why the organizers have asked speakers to rehearse at the different user groups.

Rick, I was upset that someone would make such a dumb statement and I apologize for our group. I have attended many SWFox Conferences and I am unable to attend this year. In past years I have looked on the rehearsals as an opportunity to see more of the conference. There never seems to be enough time in Phoenix to see all the sessions I want to attend. Although the rehearsals are a poor substitute for the real thing, this year they are my only option. Many thanks to you, Jody, and Cathy for coming to our group.<br /><br />Jeff Simon I too heard the comment about “not needing to attend the conference because of the quality rehearsal”.
