We hope you all enjoyed the 2009 Annual Meeting! The energy and ideas from the wide variety of topics often spilled out of the sessions to animated conversations in the hallway. Beyond the findings and lessons learned presented in the sessions, one could see the wheels churning and the connections being made for future collaborations. Always a gratifying sight for those of us who work to put on this meeting.

We are slowly getting the presentations and linking them on the community site through the schedule page. If you were a speaker and haven’t yet sent your presentations, please get them in to Robert Payo.

I also want to remind you to take a moment to complete the Annual Meeting Survey. We do use your feedback in planning the next meeting, so every comments counts!

And finally, thanks to all of you in the community who came, shared, discussed and connected. The meeting represented the best at what a thriving community is all about.
