Dwayne, Your choice of conferences certainly should depend on what you currently do or what you anticipate doing. I'd suggest the Oracle Development Tools User Group (ODTUG) Conference in Scottsdale, AZ. June 20-24. It would be especially useful is you deal with developers in any way such as PL/SQL, tools they use, database design, modeling, Forms, Reports, Java, J2EE, etc. There is a huge business rules and methodology component too with the conference tracks and the Business Rules Symposium on 6/19. For those dealing with development or developers with anything Oracle it's the best value for your training dollar. Hope you can make it!

Are there any conferences/seminars coming up that you would recommend? The HOTSOS and IOUG are my first choices but they are too close for consideration. Unfortunately. Well, the IOUG conference is not too close but sending me out of the country is out of the question. While not Oracle related, I am considering the O'Reilly conference in July or the MySQL conference in April but I thought I would look for something Oracle-centric first.
