Registration

Things are looking up at registration: registration was very quick and efficient, the conference pack was pretty streamlined - no conference bag and not too much spam, which is great - I dislike the amount of waste most conferences generate. There is wifi in the lobby and conference rooms (yay!), and the gift was the cutest set of rainbow mini highlighters, which is a nice change from a USB stick, although not as practical.

Looking through the program is pretty exciting, there seems to be a lot of good-sounding papers and invited talks. The organisers also seem to have managed the scheduling well - despite three concurrent sessions at most times, there is not a single clash between talks I'd like to attend; Thursday's invited talk does seem to clash with lunch, however, not sure how well that is going to work out.
