Here is the agenda for this weekend's collaboration meeting. Several
speakers have not been confirmed -- please contact us if you are unable to
give a talk. As usual, we'll post talks on the Braidwood web site. It
would be helpful if you could email your talk to Ed before the meeting.
Thanks.
We'll see you on Friday.
