I saw that the program draft has been posted (http://plan9.bell-labs.com/iwp9/programme.pdf) - neat! Looks like an interesting lineup. Can someone talk briefly about what the Work-in-Progress session at the end is about? That is, is this content provided by the organizers, or is it more free-form time for attendees?
Also, while it might be a bit late to fix this for this year, in the future it'd be nice if there was some kind of automated response system if humans won't be expected to respond to mail. Confirming registration and paper submissions in particular would be very nice. Getting excited for next week. Anthony
