The 2nd annual Alpha 5 Developers conference is in the works. We are in the final planning stages and all the details are not yet finalized. You can check out the details at www.a5conference.com.
We wanted to break from tradition and not work on Sunday. In addition, as we were working on subjects to cover we discover there is too much to cover in 2 days so we expanded it to 3 days. The dates are November 8 thru November 10, 2001. Thursday through Saturday. Location is Scottsdale, AZ.
When you read the schedule, you will notice that we are working on 3 workshop tracks based on the room number. Room 1 will carry Alpha 5 basics and Alpha beginners, Room 2 will carry workshops on planning, creating demos, designing, pricing and marketing your applications. Room 3 is being directed to advanced Alpha 5 use. Room 4 will carry some duplicate workshops, depending on demand.
We have some speakers confirmed at this point, some are familiar to Alpha 5 community and some new faces. We are excited about the response so far. Hopefully we will have the conference price determined by the 15th of February, so far we expect it to be in $330 range (AV equipment is horribly expensive to rent).
Take a look at the web site and let us know what you think. Please comment on anything, we want to hear from. The conference is for all of us, so we want to make it something everyone benefits from.
We do have a special Southwestern experience planned for the reception at the conference. We are also working on day time excursions for those who want to bring along a significant other, as well as before and after excursions for those who want to see the sights here in the Southwest (including the Grand Canyon). These details are not finalized yet and will be based on demand.
thanks,
