One of these days I'll have the money to travel so far :-)  The other meetings
coming up are big trips from here (Boston) too: PSB is in Hawaii and RECOMB is
in Japan (jeez!).  I could have easily made the ISMB 98 in Montreal but ended up
missing it :-(

But we did have a couple meetings so far where a few Locians actually got to
meet each other.

I think it would be a great idea to arrange an official Loci meeting that
coincides with one of the big bioinformatics conferences.  Which one do you guys
think would be the best?  Where will the following conferences be?

    ISMB 2000
    RECOMB 2001
    PSB 2001

Well, we know PSB will be near the Pacific (powerful logical deduction here). 
Maybe it'll be in California one of these years...but that might be too far for
you guys in Europe.

BTW, if we manage to get funding for Loci, we may be able to provide travel
stipends.  But don't hold your breath :-)


Ta ta,
Jeff
