Welcome to the workshop. I'm still frantically setting up the material for units 2-5! I'm a very excited that so many people are interested, and a little bit surprised too.

I'll be holding office hours at 9am (Pacific) Wednesdays and Saturdays. Why those times? I will be at home with my nice computer, instead of at work with my underpowered one -- it will run SL but it's painful.

However, I know some people can't make those times, so I'm working on another office hour. Thursdays, at 10:30-11:30 Pacific work for folks?

Thanks!
