It was once called IPROF, and the MPE Programmer’s Forum, but now the early springtime show only for HP 3000s has been dubbed The HP 3000 Solutions Symposium, and registration is underway at the Interex HP user group Web site (www.interex.o rg/conference/hp3000solutions). The conference runs from Wednesday through Saturday February 9 through 12 in San Jose at the Wyndham Hotel. Interex was just posting details on the site as we were headed to the mailbox with this issue, but promised tutorials and labs like a programming boot camp, and sessions on patch management, using the GNU C++ compiler to help get 3000 apps on the Web and interaction with CSY engineers. The show looks to have taken a sharp turn toward training for the HP 3000, a welcome shift that will feature tutorials and labs. Attendance costs $595 if you register by January 17. This meeting produces some of the most focused 3000 discussion of the year. We’ll see you there.
