Or perhaps more conferences?

Geez back in the Microsoft heyday there were many different conferences. Sure, the PDC had 20K attendees if you wanted to go to that but there were other smaller conferences as well.

Hell, I'd settle for an east coast conference so I don't need to hang out with the skinny-jeans hipsters :)

More or bigger. Allowing for 20,000 attendees would be huge for WWDC. Currently there are only 5-6,000 tickets available. I imagine it would probably still sell out at 20,000, but it would be a lot less crazy, at least.

And a lot less useful. For the "talk to Apple's engineers" part, the current head count already is stretching it, if not overstretching it.

I must hang out in the unpopular labs. My experience has been that the engineers currently have a lot of down time and it's really easy to get their attention if you want it.
