Here is a suggestion for future Winter USENIX scheduling.
I suggest that USENIX be displaced one additional day later
than UNIFORUM. That would mean tutorials on Wed/Thurs and
technical conference on Fri/Sat.
Advantages:
1) People taking two tutorials and trying to attend as much
of the (already parallel session) technical conference, could
still have a free day to visit the Uniforum exhibits if they
wished.
2) Many of us are on low budgets, and the airfares are much
lower if you stay a Saturday night.
3) Some academic schedules have Tuesday/Thursday classes. If
the conference starts Tuesday and ends Friday you miss an
entire week of classes.
