[cisco-voip] networkers or ciptug

[Ed Leatherman]

Ditto what Lelio said. One thing I've noticed also with Networkers is about
half of the telephony sessions are almost identical to the previous year's..
As long as I'm lucky enough to have work sending me to one of them I think
i'm going to alternate which one I attend each year myself to try and get
the best of both.
