Well perhaps you should work on your management a bit more. It took all of about 5 seconds to convince me that this was worthwhile for my sysadmins to attend. But then again maybe I'm biased, cos I went last year.

<grump> By which I assume you make less than $20,000 per year and live in central Auckland. Seriously it's $250 per day, if you go on two days thats $500 bucks. $20/per weeek if you started saving at the start of the year when this was first mentioned (and I think I told people to start saving).

If you present you get that day free. If you talk your work into a 5% training budget then it'll cover it.

Exactly what sort of pricing could you afford? I remmeber the little ISP forum that Internetnz had a couple of years back, that was $50 per day and nobody much attended. </grump>

Perhaps my _insane_ comment was a bit of an overstatement. First post I saw regarding it was 9th of 3rd. So that would make it about $50 a week. And of course, we all have $50 spare a week dont we? _______________________________________________ Nznog mailing list Nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog ================================================================ CAUTION: This e-mail and any attachment(s) contains information that is intended to be read only by the named recipient(s).
