[X10-innovation] X10 Day April 16, 2010

[Evelyn D. <du...@us...>]

We are happy to announce X10 Day, to be held on Friday April 16, 2010 in
Hawthorne, NY. This will be a full day event, and details, including travel
information and agenda will be available here shortly:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/XTENLANG/X10+Day

We prepared a questionnaire (below) to help us put together an agenda for
the X10 Day that will be meaningful for you. Depending on your interest, we
may run parallel lab sessions to address a broad range of interests. Please
take a moment to fill out the questionnaire (should only take a few
minutes) and send it to me at du...@us... by Friday March 12.

Thanks, and we look forward to seeing you at the X10 Day soon!
