Much as I hate to say it, I sort of agree.  I would like to suggest
that perhaps Usenix could sponsor a week of tutorials? Perhaps extended
tutorials, i.e. 2 or 3 days long, mixed with the traditional 1 day
tutorials.

As much work as the tutorials are, I find it very frustrating that I
can only take two at a time, when there are usually about four that
I would like to go to.
