Talbot 2009 Talks
Notes are now posted below. As they were taken on a half-size e-book reader, my notes are best viewed at about 50% zoom, preferably in dual mode (two pages side by side). -Sheel (Mar 30)
State of planning: about half of the talks have detailed summaries, and the others are at least sketched very roughly. Given the amount of background noise produced by the semester, I may not be able to do more than this. If I do have time to expand on the planning, I will mark edits explicitly as such. Otherwise, feel free to elaborate on these suggestions yourself, as seems best. -Paul (Feb 5)
