BUG 2002 Hits Windshield of Economic Reality

February 6, 2002

Despite the best efforts of Bob Kotwasinski, Don Peper, Norm Rimbey and the rest of the Arizona Republic Production Department, BUG 2002 has been postponed. Citing the economic turndown, slashed (or eliminated) travel budgets, Don Peper reported conference participation was down significantly.

The Arizona Republic is planning to host BUG 2003. Please start making your plans to attend next year. Don Peper indicated his intention to move the conference earlier in the year, with mid- to late-March being explored.

Thanks to Bob, Don and Norm for all their efforts in trying to make a go of BUG 2002, and agreeing to host in 2003!
