1. First, there are very few Jims in the world.
2. If ACUCs are going to be successful and helpful, they should be annually. If you want them biannually, that's fine, but there will always be some excuse to put it off: V5, CCHIT or something.
3. While it's great to get to see the country and move them around like some of the big boys, e.g. AAP, AAFP, etc., it is much more practical for AC and Jon to run these every year. Do them every year in Rhode Island. Sure, it's not the Grand Canyon, but the logistics are just easier.
Okay Bert but you only indirectly answered the question, will that date and place work for you?
Indeed there are very few Jims, for those of you who do not know Jim Blain, he really spearheaded the last conference, and did a lot of the organizing including getting CME.
Moving the conference around the country is probably easier for people on limited budgets because then they can come at different times or different areas of the country. People from the West Coast may have a much greater expense getting to Rhode Island.
Besides there and new things to explore, and include in a vacation.
Sure did not have ACUC last year, but all sorts of things were going on, both from an Amazing Charts standpoint, as well as shifting from organization by users to organization by the company. Now a lot of new things, ie version 5 are out. And more input on version six might be nice, if it is not out by then.
