Ravi,
you are so right, we had the opportunity to attend an excellent and
extremely well organized conference. Congratulation to Kate and the
whole team at the NIST!!!
Uwe
ps. Thanks for starting the thread - it is too easy to forget about
these well deserved thanks when we are back in normal life...

Dear UseRs!,
Everything about UseR! 2010 was terrific! I really mean "everything" - the
tutorials, invited talks, kaleidoscope sessions, focus sessions, breakfast, snacks,
lunch, conference dinner, shuttle services, and the participants. The organization was
fabulous. NIST were gracious hosts, and provided top notch facilities. The rousing
speech by Antonio Possolo, who is the chief of Statistical Engineering Division at NIST,
set the tempo for the entire conference. Excellent invited lectures by Luke Tierney,
Frank Harrell, Mark Handcock, Diethelm Wurtz, Uwe Ligges, and Fritz Leisch. All the
sessions that I attended had many interesting ideas and useful contributions. During the
whole time that I was there, I could not help but get the feeling that I am a part of
something great.
Before I end, let me add a few words about a special person. This conference
would not have been as great as it was without the tireless efforts of Kate
Mullen. The great thing about Kate is that she did so much without ever
hogging the limelight. Thank you, Kate and thank you NIST!
I cannot wait for UseR!2011!
Best,
Ravi.
