The Spectrum 2004 conference provided for 20 informative presentation sessions, by professionals in the technical communications industry. Spark presented to a standing room only crowd, on its trademarked topic "Linking Documentation with Engineering". This was the first time that Spark has presented on this particular topic. Presenting for Spark were: Michael G.
