What the heck happened to Mercury world?

I received this comment on the blog:

Q: I would like to attend the equivalent of Mercury world this year, but I cannot find anything about it. Has it been canceled?

A: No. When Mercury was acquired by HP the HP OpenView Forum and Mercury World were combined into HP Software Universe. HP Software Universe is currently held twice per year, once in the U.S. and once in EMEA. The last event was HP Software Universe Vienna, Austria. The next event will be HP Software Universe Las Vegas, NV USA 16-18 June 2009.
