Hello all,
This is a reminder that early registration for the 2011 Galaxy Community
Conference closes in less than two weeks. You can save 20% on registration
if you register on or before 24 April.
http://galaxy.psu.edu/gcc2011/Register.html
We've also added a partial list of confirmed speakers. More will be added
in the coming weeks as the schedule firms up.

Please let me know if you have any questions, and hope to see you in May,
Dave C.
