Hi everybody.

Jim Hines is certainly right when proposing a professional conference.
I was only a three hours drive from Nijmeegen and nearly went to the
conference.

But I was afraid of having not much in return.

If it had been a professional conference, I would have certainly attended
the conference.

One another thing is that at a professional conference you find people that
do not really know SD except as users. And this is what is lacking terribly
in this forum and makes the field looks like a pure academic field, except 
the few, well known  and everlasting examples of so-called 'concrete' 
applications.

This conference does not need too to be four days long.

Regards.
