Our mission is to educate and bringing in high end people for the convention has a trickle-down effect that is hard to calculate, but is no less real because of that. I ALSO think that we can't forget that there are people who come to the convention who are still at a pretty basic level. I think we need to be sure to include at least one program for them too. Not everyone needs to attend every session... in fact, if they don't, there's more chance that they'll have time to spend in the vendor room.
