Dear coleague, First, a happy new year to you! Unfortunately, Thursday's telcon coincides exactly with another telcon by the UK e-Science All Hands Meeting Foundation. I joined this foundation last year. These telcons are less frequent, so I decided to join that. The foundation organises the annual UK e-Science All Hands Meeting, next one in December. Speaking of this AHM telcon, if you have suggestions for the All Hands Meeting, I would be pleased to bring them forward at the meeting. Apart from the planning of the upcoming meetings (December 2009, September 2010), funding/sponsorship, evolution of the role and format of AHM, and industry engagement are on the agenda. Some more background: The AHM has a distinguishing focus on providing an opportunity for practitioners and developers of e-Science to meet and talk, apart from traditional presentations and demonstrations. As far as I know, it was originally born out of the large UK e-Science initiative a couple of years ago. The meeting is also very international. I have been asked to join the foundation to help increase the cross-disciplinary character of the meeting and its international outreach. Again, my apologies and thanks for suggestions, Marco. -- Marco Roos Faculty of Science University of Amsterdam Kruislaan 403, room F1.02 1098 SJ Amsterdam tel. +31 (0) 20 525 7522 http://home.medewerker.uva.nl/m.roos1 (includes links to social networks) Note the change of e-mail address to M.Roos1@uva.nl
