<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've gone to both - it's difficult to decide which
is better. Networkers by far has a greater variety of presentation topics, so if
you where a networking hat as well as telephony hat, you might like it better.
CIPTUG is more user driven, so many of the presentations are from users. That
being said, calibre of presentations may not be what you are used to. Networkers
presentations go through the grind a few times and are usually honed for time,
audience, content, etc. But user presentations can sometimes be spot on what you
are looking for. Very real world examples here, and the truth will come out
whether they were successful or not and what you need to do to get it to work.
The smaller scale also makes things very collegial. You'll know about 10% of the
attendees by their first name by the end of the thing.</FONT></DIV>
