I'd have phrased Adrians' later response to Arjen like this:

AUUG is both Broad and Deep.
It covers the *whole* territory and attempts to "put it all together"
like no other group.
It also brings a bunch of history and experience along - and provides
the long view.

Interest Areas are Systems, Security, Applications/Services, Programming
as well as 'Management' and 'Business'.

The AUUG conference has an eclectic mix of speakers, attendees and
international 'names'.
You *will* be surprised at what you learn and whom you meet.
If you have only one conference to attend, this should be it.


Well - that was the case when I was attending...
