I didn't  hear about this conference.  Avi Duvdevani the Acting
Commissioner, New York City Department of Information Technology
spoke at the NECCC Electronic Government Conference in Las Vegas
on Monday. http://ec3.org/

Here is a brief press report.  As you may recall, the NYC.GOV web site
was intermittent.

  While Verizon was working to restore voice communications, Duvdevani
  said that the city's Web site (www.nyc.gov) became a resource for
  disseminating information to the public and media. Volume of traffic
  was 100 times greater than normal, he said.

Did anyone attend the NECCC conference?
