Unconference

A big thank you to all those who have offered sessions as below.  We hope the rest of you take advantage and join some of these sessions.  You do not need to register if this is difficult but can just roll up and join in.  Venues are listed below.  Grab extra chairs if needed and go for it.  Session initiators we are depending on you to turn up even if no-one has logged in for your session as most people will decide in the morning.  Enjoy the opportunity and remember that the sessions are flexible, run for as long as they do, stay on or go off topic, and that the control and responsibility rests with the group.  Enjoy!
