Notes:
Please show up at 8:00am on Tuesday to grab a bagel and get signed in.
Bagels, snacks and lunch will be provided on the two tutorial days.
We had hoped to have 2 tracks, but were not able to get two rooms large enough to hold us. We've pared the list down to 4 half-day tutorials that seemed to have the widest appeal.
"Using SciPy for Statistical Analysis" had been bandied about as a topic, but will instead be addressed a bit differently as a BoF and Sprint for those interested in getting their hands dirty in the scipy.stats code.
