One hour only for the software vendors?? It’-s an academic conference, then, not an industry conference. Which may explain why only two software vendors made the trip.
The real industry forum is Midas Oracle, anyway. There are 50 times more people on this group blog every day that God makes than in their phone-booth academic conference. 
That said, best wishes to David Pennock for his conference. (That’-s him who is behind all this commotion, right?? )
