Due to numerous requests, we have extended the deadline for abstract
submission by one week. Abstracts are now due July 21. To ease life for
workshop and symposium organizers, please submit earlier, if possible.

We have added a final keynote address for this year's meeting: Anne Bowser,
who works in a number of fora around issues of data interoperability in
citizen science, and who's work on gamification is familiar to many of us.
Anne joins an illustrious lineup, and we now have keynotes for each of the
first four days of the week. We will meet in plenary each of these
mornings, and then break out in parallel sessions for the remainder of each
day.

Please also note that computer demonstration will be in the form of a
software bazaar.  We will have a designated time slot, and a room with
tables where those with demos can set up laptops, and attendees can float
around from demo to demo, as in a poster session. Abstracts are required
for computer demonstrations.

With best regards,

Joel Sachs
