This is the wiki page for topics to be discussed in the LIL group meetings. While one person will be officially leading the group in each session, the group will be structured in the form of a discussion.

We will be meeting at CSE 624 (CHANGE: now in the AI Lab) on Thursdays at 4:30. We also have a mailing list lil-group (https://mailman.cs.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/lil-group).

Schedule: Winter 11
