Hi,

Here's the official schedule for Sage Days 18. Note that there is
some compression and re-arrangement, which was required by CMI. Also
note that the last day starts at 9am and ends at 2:30pm. There are
exactly 3 talks each (research) day right now, and they are all during
2pm-5:20pm, to make things easier on the locals.

Dear William,

Because of teaching obligations, I'm not going go be in Boston till
Thursday morning (I'm taking the red-eye Wednesday night). Would you be
able to swap me with someone speaking Thursday afternoon or Friday?

Matt

Dear Drew,

Could you swap with Matt Greenberg? I.e., could you speak on Tuesday
at 4:20pm so Matt can speak on Friday at 4:20pm? That's better for
him, since he's arriving on redeye on Thursday.

Dear William

Sure, I can speak on Tuesday instead.

Drew
