Like many previous IOUG/OAUG/Quest shows, Pythian will be in Denver next week!
It was a sunny day in the fall of 1991 when I gave my first paper at International Oracle User Week (IOUW), a pre-cursor to COLLABORATE and a few earlier incarnations called IOUG-Live and IOUG-Alive! It has been a whirlwind of papers and sessions since then, and I for one am still speaking mainly about the good old database. It is the heart of my skill set and will always be part of it. Outside of our participation at the speaker level, Pythian is also in the exhibit hall in booth 606 with prime real estate close to the main entrance. Just hang a left, and we are the 5th or 6th booth to your right. Pythian rock stars will be at the booth on and off all week. You never know who you will meet there as the social network following and interacting with Pythian is vast and deep.
Speaking of vast, we look forward to your attendance at one of our sessions as per the following details:

Please speak to Alex Gorbachev (serving IOUG board member) or yours truly who was on and off the board between 1993 and 2007.
