Josh...get home...kick off your shoes...relax...hang your head and take a nap (minus the drool). When you awake with your batteries recharged...BLOG AWAY my friend!!! I did not get the chance to go to SWW so fill me up with info! It's cold up here in New England (yes, I am a die hard Pats fan) so don't forget to blog about how nice the weather was in San Diego.
You provide excellent advice for group file management. I implement the same settings for every day use for all our SolidWorks seats. Whether you have PDMWorks or another PLM tool matters not, (you mentioned gopher heads...thoughts of my childhood playing Whac-a-mole entered my mind). Something to add; communication, communication and communication. Users on the project team need to let the other players know where there at, if they experience problems, or when they plan to complete certain tasks. Did I say communication yet? Thanks Josh...I need to go give someone a hug now! ;~)
