Re: XCon 2008 Call for Paper



Got couple of emails with comments (language mistakes) and questions,
Thanks guys!

Actually XCon is held by XFOCUS guys (Casper and others), they wrote
it up and I was just helping to post the CFP.

If  you have any questions regarding the schedule, the conferences,
the hotel, etc.

Welcome to XCon! Welcome to China!
