[Tom Barton <>]

This year Jasig's annual conference will be held back-to-back with the Advance CAMP in the same hotel outside of Denver at the end of May. It will be a great opportunity to network with your colleagues and to influence how open source products integrate with a campus environment. Please plan to come and contribute!
