SmartFriends™ U: Languages & Libraries

Lots of interesting people from commercial and research communities are likely to be attending. As I understand it this will be an intimate [30-50 person] conference with lots of time for discussions, interaction, and debate amongst active users and leaders within various language communities.

September 26-28th [THIS WEEKEND]

It is taking place starting Friday Evening and ending Sunday Evening. Check-in looks like it begins around 3PM on Friday.
