The Bridges Organization would like to take this opportunity to remind
you that the submission deadline for the Bridges 2009 regular papers
program is coming up on February 1st (about two weeks away).  We are
looking forward to another exciting and stimulating conference this
year, made all the more exciting by contributed papers and presentations
by the Bridges community.  We look forward to receiving your submitted
papers, and to seeing you in Banff, Alberta, Canada in July.
