More conferences = fewer people attending Oracle conference = fewer dollars from attendees = fewer dollars from exhibiting vendors
Independent conference = possible criticism of Oracle
Oracle controlled conference = No criticism of Oracle
Don't get me wrong. I think Oracle has fine products and I am a shareholder :-) , but all companies like to control the press coverage and publicity about their products.
I'm glad OAUG is remaining independent.
