I'd like to thank Damita Chambers and Vahid Nourani for planning and coordinating the conference. Great job. Thank you.

And the award judges -- Lucy Haagen, Sonja Murray, Steve Snow, and Vera Stepp.

Thanks to Javed Mortuza for his volunteer work designing the conference Web site and the registration process, with the PayPal interface.

And special thanks to our sponsors: Red Hat, CTCNet, e-NC, SimDesk Technologies, Isoph, NetCorps, Antharia, and OneWhoServes

Please start thinking now about how the conference could be run next year.
