XDC2008 Program

This is the rough program for XDC2008. If you would like to give a talk, please add a proposal to the Ideas section below. Please do not edit the program itself: instead, if you have any time constraints (e.g. are arriving late or leaving early), please note them with your talk.

The schedule itself will be available closer to the conference.
