In your list of official activities at the national DECUS symposia, you
forgot to mention the Pre-Symposia Seminars (PSS) which are offered on the
Sunday before the symposium begins.  There are 75 seminars being offerred
in Cinncinati.

Seminars differ from symposia sessions since they are 7 hours of in-depth
discussions on technical topics.  The range of topics is broad - from VMS
Tuning to Network interfaces to writing X-Window applications.  The
presenters are volunteers and Digital employees who share their technical 
expertise with attendees.  

In Anaheim, over 2000 people attended the seminars.  The formats ranged from
lecture to hands-on tutorials, and for the most part were rated highly 
by attendees.
