As I unfortunately\r\n\tmissed out previously, I\u2019m looking forward to going to <abbr title=\"Web Directions 2006\">WD06<\/abbr> this year. \r\n\tMy one concern is the $750 price tag (the early bird discount) just for the\r\n\tconference and $395 for each workshop (when purchased with conference registration).<\/p>\r\n<p>Prior to the conference, there will be 2 days of workshops on September 26\r\n\tand 27, with two full-day workshops per day.  According to the information\r\n\tI stumbled across, the workshops will be run by <a href=\"http:\/\/domscripting.com\/\">Jeremy\r\n\tKeith<\/a> (DOM Scripting),\r\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/boxofchocolates.ca\/\">Derek Featherstone<\/a> (Accessibility),\r\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gotomedia.com\/\">Kelly Goto<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/molly.com\/\">Molly\r\n\tHolzschlag<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stuffandnonsense.co.uk\/\">Andy\r\n\tClarke<\/a> (Markup and CSS).
