Minos 2010 Draft Schedule

With Minos only a couple of weeks away, we now have a draft programme of presentations. If you have not yet registered, there is still time or you can do so on the day. I'm sure we can squeeze in some more speakers, so if you would like a slot to show off your latest toy then please let me know and we'll add you. I've put a show-and-tell session at the end to allow people to just stand up for a minute or two.

Here is the draft programme - something for everyone here I think:
