Re: [PLUG] LISA Conference in San Diego, December 4-9


I highly recommend this conference if you or your employer has the budget
for it. I was at Lisa 03 and it was great. Tutorials and related materials
are real good, the talks are good, and the vendor talks expose new
products that are just barely coming to market.
