RE: New COMMON Conference

I'm not sure why COMMON would want to compete with other events. As I
recall, they tried that several years ago, and it caused some conflict with
others in the industry, to COMMON's detriment.

I see that this conference is definitely not another Mini COMMON. It
seems more in line to compete with offerings from:

RPG and DB2 Summit October 23-25
http://www.systemideveloper.com/Summit/conferences.html

IBM i DevCon October 29-31
http://ibmidevcon.com/
Although this one seems to dabble a little in administration also.

Gee, October seems to be really popular for these events.
