On Monday, Aug. 13, I will be at a big optimization conference at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. It's the joint International Conference on Continuous Optimization (ICCOPT) and Modeling and Optimization: Theory and Applications (MOPTA) conference.

I'll be running a session with three Maple-related talks given by Jan Bakus of Maplesoft, Andrew Curtis of the University of Western Ontario, and myself.

If any of you are attending the conference (and I'm pretty sure there are a few MaplePrimes readers who will be there), please stop by and see us!
