Conference Schedule

Dave Aring of Visionpace has created a very cool session scheduling application called Kokopelli (the name of the figure with the flute in our logo). It automates the selection of the sessions you want to see and even creates a handy printed schedule that fits in your conference badge. See the Kokopelli page for details.

In addition, we have a Guidebook for mobile devices, providing access to speakers, sessions, and the conference schedule.
