15th WorldVistA Conference

Returned last night from the 15th WorldVistA conference, held in Seattle this year. About 50+ interested parties came to three days of workshops, presentations and panel discussions. I haven't attended since 2002 when Medsphere hosted. It was nice to see a number of old comrades and also meet some new folks. I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to present the OpenVista Appliance with a couple of experts on the subject. This also gave me a chance to briefly show off CIS. While at the conference we also took the opportunity to update our GTK installers, CIS and Appliance releases.

Many thanks to the hard working volunteers at WorldVistA for their hours and hours of dedication and hard work.

Since summer has already begun for Hol, she traveled with me and got to spend some time in downtown Seattle. Her dad even came over for the day. We stayed off of Queen Anne St., at the very funky MarQueen hotel (built in 1918 to house the blacksmiths for the engineering school!) -- if you're in this area the restaurant (Peso's Kitchen and Lounge) just across the street had good atmosphere and food (and art)! This is only my second time to Seattle, but it's a very cool town -- extremely mellow and architecturally interesting.
