[aspect-devel] ASPECT hackathon in College Station, TX, May 14-23, 2014

[Siqi Zhang]

Hi Wolfgang,

I would love to participate the hackathon. I am using ASPECT almost a year
now and made a few personal modifications to the code for some specific
problems. I would like to contribute them to the development of the ASPECT
through this hackathon.

1. Siqi Zhang, Macquarie University, Sydney
2. May 14-23
3. I wish to apply travel support if possible (Airfare around 1,800 USD)

Regards,

Siqi
