Cobalt Users Conference 2002/Summer in Nagano

From 5th to 7th of June 2002, we have hosted Cobalt Users Conference event in Nagano city of Japan. It is the 2nd conference from the last year.
I want to say thank you for a lot of support and help of members of users group. We could end it with the great successfully closing.

From chief of organizer

As same as the last year, we could host Cobalt Users Conference in Nagano city of Japan. So, over 60 members gathered totally, it was memorable event. I must say thank you and I also fully enjoyed the event itself.
We could organize a great program more than the last year. This year had 3 days (whole 48 hours) and the early half part (24 hours) was programmed for beginners. The famous support member of mailing list had been standing as lecturers. The last half part was dedicated to professional developers, then we called it as 'deep course'. Lecturers were all real commercial developers and discussed about very pragmatic and technical topics in detail.
It is our proud that we could all about seminars and lectures in voluntary. There is no words to explain my thanks enough. How nice!
Let us gather again, somewhere on the net, or somewhere on the planet.

Concept

This conference is focusing on developers of application software specialized for Cobalt and support engineers of ISP who has Cobalt systems. They can make progress by themselves through our seminar programs, demonstrations and the face to face discussion of this conference.
Yes, it is hard to make much time for self-learning for busy engineer. And it is also hard to exchange an opinion with other companiy's guy. Therefore we, Cobalt Users Group choose Nagano city and made 2 nights and 3 days course for this conference. Because Nagano has pretty long distance from Tokyo and Osaka where is a center of their business. Any boss of them cannot say "Hey, we're in trouble, get back now".
Please get a lot of knowledge, experience and friends in this chance.
