You beat me to posting it.
The space is limited for this workshop, and preference is given to University of California affiliates...but I doubt we will turn anyone away who comes with their own laptop. (if you are interested, and don't make the cut, write me an email and I will try to squeeze you in).
So, if you or your freind who's always been wanting to learn PD is in the LA area....go to the registration page:

all the best -august.
PS: Derek and others...if you can point me to any useful material for the workshop, I'd appreciate it.
