conference comment

[Kathleen D. Shea]

Thanks, also, for the kind words.  Dave did most of the planning, and I'm glad everyone enjoyed the conference, as did I.  I'm replying to this so late, because I jumped right into two weeks of CoLang courses, taking advantage of CoLang taking place at KU.  It was great--kind of like being at summer camp, with no homework or finals but a lot of learning taking place.  People from all over the world attended.

Best wishes and a happy 4th to you all,

Kathy

After the meetings were over I talked with Marty Richardson and Doug Parks both of whom expressed interest in hosting a future meeting at the University of North Carolina and Indiana University respectively.  I hope both will be able to follow up on this as time goes on.  Right now we have no definite commitment for 2014 yet.
