MUG 2005

The 2005 Daylight User Group Meeting will be held March 9-11 in Coronado, CA.

Our three day format includes one afternoon of training and demos, followed by two full days of presentations from Daylight staff and Daylight users. Users will present talks on the work they are doing utilizing Daylight software. These presentations offer the opportunity to share and learn on a peer-to-peer level with other Daylight users. Daylight staff will present on new developments and directions for Daylight. All individuals interested in Daylight, regardless of their level of experience or familiarity with our software, are invited to attend.

Daylight staff will be offering an informal training session on Wednesday, March 9, 2004.
