Via Michael Nielsen comes the first announcement of QIP 2006
Dear Colleagues,
This is the first announcement for the tenth QIP (Quantum Information
Processing) Workshop, to be held in Brisbane, Australia, from January 30
through February 3, 2007.
The deadline for abstract submission for contributed talks (long and
short) and for posters is 4 November, 2006.
The deadline for early bird registration is 24 November, 2006.
Full details are available at the workshop website:

Hope to see you in Brisbane in 2007!
Regards,
Michael Nielsen
QIP is the premier quantum information science conference for theorists (why it is called a workshop is beyond me!) I’m teaching winter term, but I hope to be able to take the week to attend QIP.
As a dedicated consipiracy theorist, I think it is interesting to note that QIP has been moving towards progressively warmer climates. I mean the QIPs in the early 2000s were all totally freezing (-12 is cold in both F and C) or accompanied by major storms. I suspect this is a sign of the maturation of the field. On the other hand, Brisbane was the site of a horrible massive huricane last year (crap I hope I didn’t just jinx Brisvegas.)
Er, Dave, that hurricane was about as “close” to Brisbane as the Florida hurricanes are to Boston. There hasn’t been a hurricane in or near Brisbane in my lifetime.
Otherwise, thanks for the plug.
Doh!
Is Flordia close to Boston? I wouldn’t know. I’m from the west coast (I always forget that Boston is father north than New York.)
Last sentence crossed off!
Brisbane will be warm. Far _too_ warm. What’s wrong with a place where you might have to put on a coat?
