Jan 15: Advert: More Conference News
I know the Hotsos Symposium must be approaching because I've been in bed the last couple of days with a cold. Fortunately this one didn't arrive in the final week of preparation, but it's still been unpleasant and I could have done without it.*
Anyway, I see that the word is finally out about MOTS - The Michigan Oak Table Symposium - via Charles Hooper's excellent blog. If you haven't picked up on that one yet, enjoy! Post after post of useful technical stuff. For example, his latest one on the relationship between the different Time Model statistics, which I've discussed here in the past.
Carol Dacko contacted me about this conference that she is organising along with several others and I think it's going to be a cracker. First of all, it's the weekend before next year's Openworld so those of us heading over from Europe can combine the two conferences into one trip and they'll be quite a contrast, I reckon! Second, there's a maximum of 300 attendees, which should make for a nice informal atmosphere with plentiful opportunities for speakers and other attendees to mix and talk Oracle. Third, the list of speakers is starting to look great. One I'm really looking forward to!
Speaking of Openworld, there seems to be some confusion over the naming of this year's MOW. I think it's now called Miracle Aben Verden, which may or may not be something to do with monkeys. I have no idea what's going on there, but I'm sure it'll be another cracker, whatever it happens to be called this year! (Suppose I'd better change that graphic over in the side-bar this weekend.)
You'd think I had nothing technical to blog about. I do, just waiting until I have the desire. So much for a post-rush over the holidays
* I wonder if that tenuous link to a conference will get me off the hook for breaking one of the golden rules of blogging - thou shalt not whine about feeling ill. Nobody cares.
