To recap:

The ADASS conference is held each year at a different hosting
astronomical institution. The conference provides a forum for
scientists and programmers concerned with algorithms, software
and software systems employed in the acquisition, reduction,
analysis, and dissemination of astronomical data.  The program
includes invited talks, contributed papers, display sessions,
tutorials, and computer demonstrations, as well as special
interest ("Birds of a Feather" or BOF) meetings.  These
activities aim to encourage communication between software
specialists, scientists, and also to stimulate further development
of astronomical software and systems.  We encourage you to
participate in this exciting conference by submitting an oral or
poster abstract, a demonstration, or a BoF proposal.

Note that this year the registration fee covers the opening reception
on Sunday, breakfasts, lunches on Monday and Wednesday, as well as the
conference banquet on Tuesday. 

Key topics for this year's conference include but are not
limited to:

* Education and Public Outreach  	
* Scientific Computing 	
* Large Observatory Challenges 	
* Cross Catalog Matching 	
* Solar Astronomy 	
* Grid and Grid Virtualization 	


We look forward to seeing you in Boston!

Sincerely,

Arnold Rots
