Dave, I wanted to stay out of this conversation seeing that I am part of the new users group organization, but I wanted to at least share some of the stats/information with everyone. In September, we had 520 customers which attended the CDNLive! event. If we include the Analysts, Press, Keynotes and Cadence employees our grand total would be ~750. From my perspective, the conference was a success for our Inaugural year. We had a good mix of Cadence users as well as Cadence R&D / Execs at the conference. We received many positive comments on the technical content of the conference as well as positive feedback on representing a broader audience across Cadence product areas. The Steering Committee plans on growing the Cadence user attendees as well as the Technical content for the CDNLive! 2006. I have said too much already but I wanted to at least give you a general summary of CDNLive! 2005. In response to the one of the comments regarding an On-line User Group, We plan on utilizing the new user community site www.cdnusers.org for just that type of activity. Of course the logistics to roll something like that out would be tricky but it is certainly something that is being discussed for the future events. Thanks, Michael Catrambone UTStarcom, Inc.
