[TheForge] "Official" news from ABANA

[Bruce Freeman]

Bill,
I may be missing something pretty basic here, but what
advantage is it to have more than two demos going on
at once?  With two,  you have a choice, and even that
can be frustrating.  I'm remembering a PABA meeting a
few years back that had two magnificent demonstrators
-- and I could only "channel hop"!
>From my own experience, and from reports here from
others, a major problem at ABANA conferences is even
figuring out who is doing what, when.  I missed  some
demos I'd have like to have seen at the 1998
conference because the schedules were so hard to
interpret.  (It is not easy to draw up an
easy-to-interpret schedule, so I'm not faulting the
folks who drew these up.)
So, what I'm wondering is what is the advantage of
having, say, six demos at a time?
