Man is SW slow. Easily five minutes to open a thread. And barely any posts. This has been going on for nearly a month. What is going on over there?
IDK, but there aren't any ongoing issues. Remember that
Well, if you define the site as "not working" then there is no ongoing issue
"It's meant to be like that"
That was my point. I think they are defining the performance as abysmal so that they can classify "limping along" as "nothing is wrong."

Even with five minute page loads, keeping up over there is trivially easy today!

I kinda feel like making it to the 2015 Austin Spice World was the last hurrah. The.... sponsorship.... is getting deep.

This might easily be my last year. I'm booked for 2016 but the value is declining a lot. We are already skipping London, that's a total waste. I like Austin a LOT but it is scheduled at such a horrible time (right in the middle of one of our cycles of living in Europe) that the cost and impact is just overwhelming.

It was my first and last SpiceWorld... several of the sessions were an utter waste of time... had nothing to do with the topic they said they were going to be. I was extremely disappointed in it.

It was my second Spiceworld. I didn't really attend for the sessions, although I attended an HP one that was supposed to be about end user computing and preparing for BYOD but was basically a big infomercial for the new products.
The interaction with other people, specifically IT pros, was where I saw value.
-
We as a team only attend those taught/given by team members. Other than that I hang out with the Vendors and with other SpiceHeads. That is where the value is.

No poo!
No RAID or backplane

I did sessions only in the first year. That was 2009 for me. They were horrible. I attended most that I could that year, not one was worth sitting through. It was shocking. I mean really mind blowing that there were people there that thought that that level of info was valuable. It really opened my eyes to what the audience was and where they had come from (it was mostly people struggling with double clicking on the SW installer icon.) Starting in 2010 I never attend sessions (unless it is a vendor or friends and I'm there for support.) The conference got way, way more valuable after I stopped going to sessions. Then I dropped going to the official "parties" and found that it made another leap forward in value when I had more time to interact with people there, too.
Only session that I attempted to attend just to attend was the Cyclance one last year and that was a train wreck.

Right on cue... mention that UTMs are pretty much a scam made up by sales people to make margins and... next recommendation is for a UTM by a sales drone.

I actually am using cylance, and I love it... The major session that disappointed me was one put on by solarwinds....
Didnt go to their session though.
