`
`X Developer's Meeting 2004
`
`XDC 2004 XDC 2005 >>
`
`We have scheduled a three day X Developer's meeting from Wednesday, April 28, through Friday, April 30,
`2004, at the Cambridge Research Laboratory (CRL) in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
`
`This meeting is intended to cover a wide variety of topics about X Window System technologies, and the as yet
`unmet needs of the technologies that depend on the X Window System. As a result, this meeting is intended for
`people working across the entire X Window System stack, including toolkits and window managers and desktop
`infrastructure. This meeting is not, however, intended to cover general X application development topics or
`concepts.
`
`There will be a number of people giving presentations or leading discussions. These presentations will likely
`consume no more than half of the overall meeting time so the remaining time can be spent with informal
`discussions, hacking, breakout sessions, etc.
`
`If you wish to volunteer to give a presentation or lead a discussion, please send e-mail to
`xdevconf@freedesktop.org. In addition, if you have specific topics you'd like to see discussed in a presentation
`or during informal sessions, please send e-mail with your suggestions to that address as well.

`
`Due to space limitations, attendance will be limited to no more than 40 people. If you would like to attend,
`please send mail to xdevconf@freedesktop.org. Having the names of attendees in advance eases building
`security, as we share the building with other companies.
`
`An audio feed will be made available for those attending remotely or unable to attend due to limitations on
`space. The meeting venue provides networking support with high speed Internet access.
`
`The hotels recommended near CRL are The Kendall Hotel, the Cambridge Marriott, and the Residence Inn. All
`three of these are a short walk from CRL and easily accessible via public transportation from the Kendall Square
`subway stop next to MIT. We have not negotiated any special rates with these hotels, so you'll need to shop
`around for the best rates, as they vary. A longer list of hotels is available at
`http://www.ai.mit.edu/visiting/hotels/hotels.shtml. Directions to the lab can be found at:
