General Resources:

This is a very tentative list of project groups based on various expressions of interests and intentions. Email me (before Tuesday if you like) any suggested changes on this list. You may add your name multiple times if you have not decided yet or if you want to meet your group(s) first. You may also suggest a different group structure. There will be an opportunity for group meetings on Tuesday.
