1986.1best guess is - maybe :-)CVG::THOMPSONRadical CentralistWed Jul 15 1992 15:187
	I don't believe anyone can tell you. DECWORLDs have been running about
	18 months apart. Usually it takes the people who run one 6 months to
	recover, 3 months to decide to do it and than 9 months to get it going.
	I suspect it will depend on the state of Digital in 6-9 months if we
	do it again. I doubt that the BoD has agreed to do an other one already.

1986.2maybe in Europe?POBOX::SEIBERTRPerkyWed Jul 15 1992 16:035
    I have very limited knowledge on DECworld, but from what I gather,
    they alternate between the States and Europe.  Since the last one was
    in Boston, the next one might be somewhere in Europe.

1986.3Latest that I've heard MR4DEC::RICHWed Jul 15 1992 16:1513
    Just discussed this this morning. Things are bit up in the air.
    
    There are some discussions of "formal plans" to alternate between US
    and Europe, 12, 18 or 24 months apart.
    
    The next tentative plan is for a DECville Sept 93 I believe.
    
    Also some talk about integrating World Tour (kind of a moving DECWorld
    for those who haven't been exposed.
    
    How often do you THINK we should have them and why?

    There is a questionaire being circulated around the field sales offices
    asking what we would and where we would want for DECwdorld 93.

    You're right, Alfred about it taking 6 months to recover!  8-)
    
    But the people "who run one" aren't necessarily the people who will run
    the next one.  The Program Team changes with each DECWORLD.
