Let it not be forgot, that once there was such a congenial spot (IMNSHO):
the LITA National Conferences.
And we (they) couldn't make them cost-effective. (Partly the economics of
nonprofits, ALA, and accrual accounting, where "accrual" definitely rhymes
with "cruel".)
In my own limited experience (I don't get a lot of funding, so I mostly go
where I'm invited and paid for), the closest I've seen to the
"techie-dominated conference" is Access 'xx, (e.g., Access '99), a Canadian
conference.
