Just wanted to check on one detail of the outline below....in my notes I
have that we scheduled the conference from 10A-4P with workshops 10a-12P,
lunch with a panel discussion from 12P-1:30P, workshops again from
1:30P-3:30P, and then an optional wrap-up from 3:30-4:00PM....is that
correct or have we changed what we talked about?  Thanks for the outline!
