Below is what I just put on the blog -- the noteworthy new item is that we
now have a limited number of discounts for academics and students.  The URL
of my posting (with proper hyperlinks etc) is

    Reminder: One week til Rcpp class in San Francisco 

    Just a quick note to remind everyone that the Rcpp 
    class in San Francisco, which I am holding         
    together with Revolution Analytics, will take      
    place a week from today.                           
                                                       
    We are happy to report that the number of          
    registrations has met our initial targets. But as  
    a number of open slots remain, we have decided to  
    offer a few places at discounts of 25% for         
    academics (with code acad1) and 50% for students   
    (with code student). Course details are at the     
    Revolution course page, registration is at the     
    Eventbrite page.                                   
                                                       
    And just for completeness, here is what I wrote in 
    the previous announcement:                         
                                                       
      The format will follow the workshop Romain and I 
      gave during the tutorial day preceding this      
      year's R/Finance conference. The style will once 
      again be hands-on, with copious concrete         
      examples and solid coverage of most aspects of   
      Rcpp and related packages such as RInside,       
      RcppArmadillo and others. The eight-hour         
      schedule contains about six hours of             
      instruction, split into four sessions of around  
      ninety minutes. This leaves ample time for both  
      lunch and coffee breaks, and for informal        
      discussions and Q+A.                             
                                                       
      The one-day class will be offered in San         
      Franciso on Saturday, October 8, 2011. Please    
      see the official course page for more details,   
      concrete location info and maps as well as       
      registration details.                            
                                                       
    Feel free to contact me at the usual email address 
    with questions. Or with suggestions for the        
    after-party in San Francisco :)                    
                                                                          

Cheers, Dirk
