[R] DSC 2009 First announcement

[Peter Dalgaard]

The sixth international workshop on 'Distributed Statistical Computing'
(DSC 2009) will take place at the the University of Copenhagen, Denmark,
13th-14th of July 2009. This conference follows on from the successful
DSC 1999, 2001, and 2003 conferences at the Vienna University of
Technology, DSC 2005 at the University of Washington in Seattle, and DSC
2007 at the University of Auckland. The workshop will focus on, but is
not limited to, open source statistical computing and aims to provide a
platform for exchanging ideas about developments in statistical
computing (rather than 'only' the usage of statistical software for
applications).

It is expected that a large proportion of participants will bring a
presentation. We particularly welcome contributions advancing
statistical computing as an independent topic.
