I wanted to go to SciPy this year but the timing is terrible for me with
respect to BOSC. It would be really nice to have a representative there
if you or anyone else is keen. Connecting with that community would
be really useful since their interests definitely align; check out
the top tutorial ideas:

- Distributed and multi-core computing
- Large data set handling
- Building web-based tools

Now I'm especially sad I can't make it. Hope the timing and location
works for someone,
Brad
