For inclusion in reports and other documents where swimming pools may not be appreciated, we have the [attachment:3GC-photo-fas.png boring version] (also in hi-res [attachment:3GC-photo-fas.pdf PDF]).
Finally, there is a completely unofficial but PG-rated [attachment:3GCII-conference-photo-anim.gif animated version].
The meeting is being broadcast via [http://evo.caltech.edu EVO]. If you do not have an account on EVO, please register yourself, it's free.

[attachment:casabuild_notes.txt Stephen Bourke: Build notes for Casa on ubuntu 10.10]
I tried these instructions with ubuntu 10.04. Everything seems to build until we arrive at the Qt stuff. Although the current casa/CMakeLists.txt claims to look for QT 4.3 OR 4.5 the fact is that qt 4.7 is required due to a QLineEdit object calling the setPlaceholderText function, which was not introduced till Qt 4.7. I've installed the Qt 4.7 SDK - now I just have to figure out how to tell the CMake to find the right libraries etc. - Tony Willis
Yeah, that issue is actually the reason I upgraded my own system to 10.10 and wrote the above notes. It's due to the new region manager that was introduced in r15960. I did wonder if the dependency bump implications of using that function were known / intentional (maybe not as Cmake doesn't check for version 4.7 as you mention) I'll drop the NRAO a mail about it... - Stephen Bourke
