Hi Andy,

I checked the Google cache and it seems you are correct. I guess I had
lower expectations but it's very expensive to rent a facility and organize
a conference. Sorry for the false alarm.

I will have to think about which talks are interesting and relevant to me.
In addition to the cost it'll also be 5-7 days of my life. Most likely I
will keep my ticket once I've identified the specific talks that I feel
are valuable. Sorry for the confusion,

Vincent
