In a bit of breaking news this [Monday] morning, it appears that Intel has decided to cancel their Intel Developer Forum tradeshow going forward, including this summer's expected IDF17.
In an announcement posted on the IDF website, Intel has announced that IDF is no more, and that the entire IDF program is ending.
Intel has evolved its event portfolio and decided to retire the IDF program moving forward. Thank you for nearly 20 great years with the Intel Developer Forum! Intel has a number of resources available on intel.com, including a Resource and Design Center with documentation, software, and tools for designers, engineers, and developers. As always, our customers, partners, and developers should reach out to their Intel representative with questions.

Interesting... this is usually the kind of thing I see when a quite productive and growing company is sold by its founder to investors.
They buy a goose laying golden eggs; and they just can't wait to get the rights to kill the goose and raid its gut.
Pay their management and legal team big bonuses, while telling the stockholders, " we've had a disappointing quarter " .
Then sell the gutted carcass as cat food.
I watched that happen in several companies... I was working in one at the time the investors bought.
