A Brief Note of Thanks
from the NSS/MIC/RTSD Chairmen

It was a tremendous job to organize and conduct such a huge conference. It would have not been possible without the tireless help of many colleagues. We would like especially to thank the organizing committee, our local hosts at the Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, the NSS/MIC Conference Information and Promotion Committee (CIP), the Scientific Program Network, our colleagues of the NPSS Transnational Committee as well as our RISC and NMISC colleagues, and all others who have helped and contributed mightily to the conference's success, a truly great and unforgettable event for our worldwide science and engineering community and for our Society.
The CIP questionnaire provided feedback indicating that this was not only the largest with close to 3000 attendees, but also one of the most successful conferences, by all metrics, in NSS/MIC/RTSD history.
Detailed information concerning the programs offered and the people involved can be found in the article above and on our conference website at: www.nss-mic.org/2008.
Our most sincere thanks to one and all who have worked long and hard to ensure a highly successful conference. We look forward to the 2009 meeting to be held in Orlando, Florida.
