Tenth Annual Beowulf Bash
    And
  LECCIBG

November 17 2008  9pm at Pete's Dueling Piano Bar


We are finalizing the plans for this year's combined Beowulf Bash
and LECCIBG 

It will take place, as usual, with the IEEE SC Conference.
This year SC08 is in Austin during the week of Nov 17 2008

As in previous years, the attraction is the conversations with
other attendees.  We will have drinks and light snacks, with a short
greeting by the sponsors about 10:15pm.

The venue is in the lively area of Austin near 6th street, very close to
many of the conference hotels and within walking distance of the rest.

November 17 2008  9-11:30pm
     Monday, Immediately after the SC08 Opening Gala
Pete's Dueling Piano Bar

sponsor the event, please contact me, becker at beowulf.org before early
November.  (We can accommodate last-minute sponsorship, but your name
