This is the first year we are having the CROSS Research Symposium fully on-line. Although we could not interact in person (nor enjoy our annual Oktoberfest activities), we hope that you found the event was interesting and rewarding.

We would appreciate if you could take some time to give us your opinion about how we did and whether this on-line format worked. CROSS is planning to continue to hold events that highlight our research and innovative open source projects. Your input will help us improve our furture events.
