This is a long thread and if I miss anything, I apologize.
Ultimately, I don't anticipate people from outside of our community,
generally, coming to WalterCon 2007. Most people who DO go to
conventions go because:
1) The company is paying for it
2) They hope to learn something that they can make money with
3) They need to remain competitive and learn new skills.
None of those are likely to be the case with WC07. 08, maybe. 07, not
so much.
I am, of course, not against more learning. That was why we presented
on both the Media Kit and Drivers last year. I would like to do more
this year.
As far as the criticisms of the last year, the single biggest factor
that people told me was an issue was the TIME OF YEAR. Many, many
people wrote and asked me why we waited until October. They were back
in school (or their kids were) and they couldn't make that date.
Why was it held in October and not during the summer as usual?
I put together a quick survey that I would like everyone to answer if
you would have any interest, ever, in coming to WC. A number of the
questions don't really pertain to this thread as much as some other
organizational things that I have always guessed on before and would
like some research to back me up on. :-D
