Planning MangoCon
-
Would people like to bring family? I highly doubt we will be planning this for summer months (as they are the most expensive to book anything) so it would be during normal school time for anyone with school age children.

I'm on my phone so I'm keeping this short until tomorrow morning, but I would love to have a session on a PKI deep dive. I think a lot of smaller shops (mine included) could benefit from this. Like it isn't something only for big companies. Simple two tier infrastructure could work for most applications at our size quite nicely. Just a first idea.;-)
I love this! and this brought along another idea - how to setup enterprise WiFi (Windows centric), deployed via GPO using RADIUS, etc.

Wow, I just looked from Minneapolis to Nicaragua for that time frame on United and came up with $250.
This makes me sad because the three tickets I just picked up for Orlando were $650 each.
Why does airfare have to be so crazy?
To keep on topic, I would travel outside the US for a good conference.
I'd drive to Minneapolis for that price difference. From Omaha to Nicaragua was $850.

And that kills my wife going! She's a teacher and typically refuses to take time off during the school year. Though... with enough notice - I might be able to convince her to do only online classes that quarter, hmmmm... there's an idea.
What's crazy - she works with a teacher who lives in San Antonio, but works in Omaha. He flies in Sunday and home Wednesday night weekly. He has an adult child that still lives in Omaha that he rents a room from while he's in town. That guy has crazy airline miles.

I'm all for a conference for grown up professionals. If it were geared toward families primarily, I won't be there. I refuse to wade through other people's kids to try to network and hang out with IT people.

Not kids AT the conference.

I was thinking that summertime would be when we would do it as late summer is the off season in the cheap places

Kids all around the hotel at all times is basically the same to me.

For the every other year out of the country thing maybe....

Even better! Maybe set up a track for this - like one session would be setting up the PKI and another follow-up session showing how to put it to good use in smaller environments.
