Cytoscape Retreat 2007

Amsterdam; the Netherlands - November 6th - 9th, 2007

This set of pages will from now on serve as the central site for the organization of the retreat. During the retreat this will also serve as starting point for notes, planning etc. The actual announcement site (now under construction) will come directly under the Cytoscape site; much like the tutorial pages are organized.

The budget is stored as an excel sheet: attachment:CytoBudget2007.xls

A preliminary compilation of potential maillists to send announcements to is stored as an excel sheet: attachment:Potential_Maillists.xls

Planning is a separate wiki page: CytoRetreat2007Planning
