A program for the August 16 to 20 workshop has been posted at
casper.berkeley. edu. A direct link to the pdf is:
http://casper.berkeley.edu/CasperWorkshop2010Program.pdf
We were able to schedule everyone who contributed or was invited to
give an oral presentation (15+5 contributed, 25+5 invited) . If you
entered a talk title at
http://casper.berkeley.edu/workshop_2010/roster/ ,
please look for your name in the schedule and confirm the information
is recorded accurately. In some cases people were a little vague
about their talk titles, in those cases it would be great if you could
bring up your record and expand / clarify. Also, we want to publish a
list of abstracts, if yours is missing or incomplete, please append.
Bring up your roster record at

The afternoons are dedicated to an extensive series of working
groups. We have nominated CASPERites to facilitate these. Please
look for your name in the program, and get in touch if you are not
comfortable with this role.
Finally there are some folks on the roster who have not paid the
conference fee ($150 or $50 for students or those for whom the full
fee is an obstacle to attendance). We appreciate that the process is
a little confusing as there is a separate secure link to take the fee
and other information by credit card or check:
https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/pcgi/conf_reg/reg.pl?conf_id=CASPER2010
We appreciate your perseverance in filling out both webforms. An
additional point of confusion is that it appears this link is down for
a couple hours just after midnight EST for maintenance. Please
contact Margaret Simonini [email protected] if you have
questions or difficulties re fee payment. We would like to note that
100% of the fees (no overhead) will be used for partial support of
workshop catering (typically breakfast, lunche, and two coffees per
day, which we felt was important for a focused workshop experience).
We are grateful to the CfA Director's office for supplementing the
catering budget.
Thanks for your consideration and assistance.
Jonathan, Lincoln, Jim, Mike, and the SOC/LOC
