Conferences, Conferences, and more ConferencesBelow is a list of Visual FoxPro conferences that I know of in 2006. My hat is off to all of the conference organizers and speakers. Even the smallest of these conferences has to be a large and complicated undertaking. Please know that myself and many others in the VFP Community appreciate your efforts.For those of you trying to decide which conference(s) to attend, the Universal Thread has provided some great coverage for many of these conferences in years past, so head on over to the UT Coverage Area if you want to know what they were like before. Which of these conferences will I be at? To be honest, I've just started seriously thinking about which conferences to attend or speak at. I'd like to go to them all. There's gotta be nothing like a whirlwind world tour of Visual FoxPro conferences - no sleep, awesome code, great sessions, fireworks, and a parade of developers chanting, "Visual FoxPro Rocks!" in unison as they march on Redmond, Washington!
