Additionally there were about 10-20 people that "dropped in" for various sessions. We did not get an accurate count of the drop-ins.

Information about the 2008 summer workshops will be announced about mid-January. Registrations for the summer workshops will be opened at that time. Applications for SC08 in Austin will be announced in early spring.

We have not yet analyzed the feedback from the participants, but we will have an initial analysis of that information by mid-January. Overall, the feedback has been extremely positive. We'll share the analysis with the instructors and anyone interested once it's completed.
