Re: IBM i DevCon

I could tell you but then I'd have to ...

>grin<

Seriously, though, I hate to speak out of turn.  As you know from having 
spoken there yourself, there will be some great speakers.  Recent 
speakers other than you and I have included Jon and Susan, Walden 
Leverich, Bruce Vining and many others.  Many IBMers have spoken over 
the years as well: George Farr, Mike Smith, Al Grega, Craig Johnson 
among them.  IIRC, Steve Will gave last year's keynote.

Anyway, as soon as the fine folks at WIS tell me I can talk, I'll be 
sure to drop more info.
