    Hi All,

    Has anyone heard of PG Retreat, or are members/been to any of the retreats? I stumbled upon them this week and was thinking about applying for membership - but I wanted get some feedback about what it was about, if it's worthwhile/fun/informative etc. Thanks in advance for any advice!

    I have never been. Most of the people I've talked to who go love it and say it's the best week of their year.

    What is the threshold for getting in? Is it a DYS-ish threshold or something more (or less?) stringent?

    It has been favorably discussed on the TAGPDQ mailing list http://www.lsoft.com/scripts/wl.exe?SL1=TAGPDQ&H=LISTSERV.ICORS.ORG . In addition to getting feedback here, you could join that list and ask about it there.
