For those who might care to do so, as moderator of
the HP Database Roundtable at HP World - Anaheim
I will now accept pre-submitted questions from readers
of hp3000-L.  I will accept pre-submitted roundtable
questions via email right up until I leave for Anaheim
on Sunday 4 August.  HOWEVER:
 
I plan to forward whatever questions I have in hand to
the HP R&D Database Lab and other panelists by close
of business Wed 31July, to give them some time to come
up with good answers.  I'm less and less a believer in
"surprising" HP with roundtable questions of a technical
nature;  IMHO better to give panelists an opportunity to
do some research before the session, rather than risk
getting the "we'll get back to you" answer....
 
Pre-submitted questions received by me after COB Wed
31 July will still get to Anaheim, but may go in the hopper
with other roundtable questions received on site.
 
Also:  Please note that this is for the ** HP ** Database
Roundtable;  i.e.:  for Image/SQL and Allbase/SQL on
the HP 3000 and the HP 9000.  There will an additional
separate "Database" Roundtable;  i.e.:  without the
"HP" prefix, for other DBMS that run on HP platforms,
and for database questions of a general nature.  That
separate roundtable will be moderated by Denys
Beauchemin.
 
The HP Database Roundtable is scheduled to take
place on Thursday 8 August from 4:00 - 5:50 pm.
 
To pre-submit questions for this roundtable via email,
please do the following:
 
(1)    Make the subject exactly as follows:
 
HP Database RT question
 
(2)    In the first part of the body, state your question or
concern as briefly and concisely as possible.
 
(3)    After (2) above, include additional supporting
information if you so desire (optional).
 
(4)    At the end, include at least your name.  If you might
want anyone to follow up with you later, better also add
your email address, snail-mail address, and / or phone
number.
 
(5)    Post your question to hp3000-L, so that the rest
of the readership can see it and avoid duplication;  and
perhaps through discussion clarify and expand on some
of the questions.
 
...........  Although if for some reason you don't want to post
your question to 3000-L, go ahead and send it directly to
me at:
