OCTOBER 5th:

                Has been changed to an all-day toolkit developers
meeting.
                It will address emerging issues in software development,
                and how agent toolkit projects (such as Swarm, Ascape,
                StarLogo and Repast) can best coordinate activities and 
                initiatives.  

                The meeting is open, but will be technical in nature.
