I am interested in any viable conversion technically, just indication our
current leaning is ux/eloquence......the more options the better, backed up
by practical experience.

I agree. We need practical topics for our conversion to HP-UX, and we are
probably going to use Eloquence also, but a viable and educational track for
conversion to other database structures would also be appreciated. IMHO

Frankly, the only topics that will get my boss to look at somebody attending
will be topics like actual conversion experiences, training recommendations
for the major alternative systems (probably ux & Eloquence for us) etc.
Sure we would like to hope that something will come along that will enable
us to stay on MPE, but we cant realistically plan on it happening, IMHO.
