How about having a conference where true enterprise architects of companies speak instead of lots of vendors…

James,

I agree with you. Technically experienced speakers are truely valuable and I’ve been quite suprised to read that, except for the locals, mainly executives will be present. I’d really love to see some practitioners speaking (as the conference title suggests) instead of their executives.
