I do not know if ROger's original intention for MQTC 1.0 was to start an annual event, or if he was just interested in doing the one event as a let's-see-if-I-can-pull-this-off type of idea.
Roger has taken on tremendous financial risk to reserve a venue and all the incumbent expenses and responsibilities - on his own - to arrange these events.
Remember when television shows used to say "Brought to you by Kellogs" or some other brand name? That company was the premier sponsor of the expense of producing the show through their bulk purchase of advertisement time.
Well, Roger may not have run ads during the MQTC, but he certainly 'brought' it to us all:
- he brought up the idea to begin with
- he polled the MQ public for their input
- he took the risk of securing a location
- he arranged for speakers and vendors
He brought it all together - and from what I am heafring, he did a magnificant job of it too.

Roger,
First of all, a big thank you for originating and carrying forward the torch for this conference. MQTC 2.0.1.4 was bigger and better than the first edition. As the conference continues to grow, I feel that the name should reflect the basic nature of the conference (MQTC). We don't, however, want to forget who brought the conference to all of us. My vote would be as follows:
MQ Technical Conference
Hosted by Capitalware
This naming does two things:
1. It decouples the conference from Capitalware, making the conference a stand-alone entity (MQTC). Really, the conference is already a stand-alone entity; hosted by Capitalware and powered by it's speakers. Without continuing and ongoing support from IBM and other vendors, we would not have the conference we have.
2. It emphasizes the preeminent role that Capitalware plays in the conference and so recognizes what should be acknowledged.
Regards,
Glen Brumbaugh

All,
At MQTC v2.0.1.4, several people mentioned that initially, they thought "Capitalware's MQ Technical Conference" was ONLY a conference on Capitalware's products. I was surprised by these comments and made me wonder how many people 'out there' also think MQTC is only on Capitalware's products.
So, I'm thinking of changing the conference name to:
- MQ Technical Conference presented by Capitalware
- MQ Technical Conference hosted by Capitalware
- MQ Technical Conference managed by Capitalware
- MQ Technical Conference brought to you by Capitalware
If the name "Capitalware's MQ Technical Conference" might cause confusion then I'm open to suggestions. What do people think?
Regards,
