Hi all, The SciPy 2004 conference was a great success. I personally enjoyed seeing all attendees and finding out about the activity that has been occurring with Python and Science. As promised, all of the presentations that were submitted to abstracts@scipy.org are now available on-line under the conference-schedule page. The link is http://www.scipy.org/wikis/scipy04/ConferenceSchedule If anyone who hasn't submitted their presentation would like to, you still can. As I was only able to attend the first day, I cannot comment on the entire conference. However, what I saw was very encouraging. There continues to be a great amount of work being done in using Python for Scientific Computing and the remaining problems seems to be how to get the word out and increase the user base. Many thanks are due to the presenters and the conference sponsors: *The National Biomedical Computation Resource* <http://nbcr.sdsc.edu> (NBCR, UCSD, San Diego, CA) The mission of the National Biomedical Computation Resource at the University of California San Diego and partners at The Scripps Research Institute and Washington University is to conduct, catalyze, and advance biomedical research by harnessing, developing and deploying forefront computational, information, and grid technologies.
