I'm planning on attending (God willing and the creeks don't raise) and
would be more than willing to do 1/2 day or better. As long as I don't
have to answer too technical of questions. I'm an old Oracle
user/developer (5/6 years ago) and have a pretty fair grip on the
relational theory stuff but just getting back into actual database design
again. I know what the rule system, functions, and friends buy a
developer and use them. I've done a few simple applications with several
more in the works. I do have to deal with MS SQL Server daily so
understand it's down-sides and get to cuss at MySQL a few times a month
when a php programmer(?) gets confused.

(Geez enough of this. I'm beginning to sound like I'm applying for a
job. Well maybe I am. :-)
