MANGOLASSI World/Con/give me a name idea please
-
I loved Darren's panel on CEO/CFO speak. Breaking it down to what you need to present, how to present multiple options, but framing them in such a way that you lead them to the decision you want.
I attended Darren's VMWare DR plan in 2011. That presentation definitely opened my eyes to new ways to present options to the powers that be.
The Group Policy panel on Thursday was pretty good as well. Wish I would have gone to the Friday one. Now I'm waiting on the video for that one to come out.

Part of the place and time for that is getting to use their stuff in labs. Just Seeing it at a table but not having hands on doesn't help a ton.
^ This x 1000. I love watching the demos they have running at the table... but nothing beats getting to use $Product in a lab environment and seeing how it actually really does work.

This was what I was promised by the Cylance guys, but alas their VM broke and they couldn't recover onsite. They were suppose to do live demos of them downloading the most recent (from that morning) viruii from VirusTotal.com then execute and show how they were all caught while never having a definition file.
The hands on live stuff is definitely a huge plus. Helps someone like me who will remember better when I've done it myself, instead of just watching or reading.

I prefer LassiCon as having more cachet. Plus you won't get as many mango vendors showing up

Just people who love those Lassie movies

Free entry to anybody who brings a dog or sack of mangos (mangoes?)?
-
Either way, Mango Lassi's MUST be served. I think that's something that we can all agree on.
-
OF COURSE!!!
-
I think several mango-inspired items should be involved including a special mango cocktail and mango salsa for chips.
-
Mango-ghost pepper smoothies?
-
Mango and habanero together is a popular flavour profile.

I have more mango-habanero hot sauces than I can count. All are fabulous.

how do I give multiple +'s to this one
-
Am I the only one here who doesn't like the taste of mangoes?
-
There will be non-mango options.

After living in a country with a Mango Tree in the yard I actually hate eating mango anything here. Not good at all, comparatively.
-
So I have to ask this because of where I have been and am currently living....
What would people think of having the conference outside of the US, maybe in a lower cost location where mangoes are common? It would make the name make more sense, mean that the conference could do more exciting things and could be an exciting point of interest for people to get to travel someplace new or different. I know that it is probably loaded with big caveats like people don't have passports, companies won't let them travel outside the US, logistics are tough, etc. But it could mean a bigger conference for less money too. Hotels would be cheaper, food cheaper, support staff cheaper, etc.

Which would support my idea of having the event in a mango country! The roads are covered with them falling off of the trees here.
