    I hope they do-- I would also like to know. 

    But I was just remembering what a friend said to me at SNAG. She is
    in marketing, and attends conferences frequently. She was amazed
    that such a major conference could be offered for so little cost!
    Apparently, marketing conferences cost much more. I pointed out to
    her that nobody pays their own way to a marketing conference. 

    So maybe Clasp is aimed at people who would not be paying their own
    way! It may be an acceptable expense to even a relatively small
    company, and it does seem to have a more business and technical
    slant. 

    I, too, would love to go, but it is totally out of the question.
