itaps-parallel Telecon to discuss ITAPS tutorial

[Lori A. Diachin]

Hi All,

Based on the feedback I got, I'd like to reserve Friday from 1-2:30 
pacific for this discussion.  I will make a teleconference reservation 
here as a back up plan - but the last one I participated in still had 
the echo issue.  Would someone else be willing to host this?

If there's time, we can also discuss the latest version of the paper 
Carl sent out.
