Mitchell, KY. At the meeting, it was announced that Must is considering abandoning the Annual Nomad International Training Conference and replacing it with eight regional 2-day conferences. Reasons cited were declining attendance and the amount of time developers spend in preparation for their conference presentations. The 10th Annual Nomad International Training Conference will be held as usual on June 5-8,1994 at the Buena Vista Palace, Orlando, Florida, due to contractual obligations left over from the 1992 conference. (They are giving a free copy of Front & Center to all registrants, and waiving registration fees for presenters!) Since the Midwest district, already has a strong regional conference, it was the opinion of many that the restructuring of the International conference was not a good idea. If you agree, I would urge to to contact your Must representatives (especially corporate types) and express your opinion. Also: NOMAD Version 6.0 will be released Nov. 12th. Front & Center, now available for Beta test, due to be released in May. Must is considering funding an 800 number for the OASIS bulletin board.
