2000 Sirius Software User Group
June 11 - June 14
Salem, Massachusetts
Thanks to the many users that attended and the several that gave presentations,
the sixth annual Sirius User Group meeting was a total success.
The schedule, location and social events were very well received.
SUG 2000 was held from Sunday, June 11 through Wednesday, June 14 at
the Hawthorne Hotel in historic Salem, Massachusetts. Sunday's
classes for "Introductory HTML" and "Web Application Fundamentals"
were attended by over 40 students, with standing room only.
The weather this year was much colder than last year, but the
camraderie and fine food more than compensated.
In between the social events, several informative presentations were given.:
Many of the foils from the presentations are available online. See the
information and tips below on the alternative choices
for viewing these presentations.
