NOTE: SAS Global Forum 2014 #sasgf14

No sooner has SAS Global Forum 2013 finished than we get to see the 2014 web site. Next year's conference is in Washington, D.C. between March 23rd and 26th.

I hear there are some changes afoot in the organisation of the conference.  Along with the absence of a Closing Session at this year's conference, there was no announcement of section chairs for the streams of papers in next year's conference. The web site offers no further information on section chairs, but it does tell us that the Call For Content opens in July. This appears to be different to previous years' Call For Papers, and it's much earlier in the year too. All-in-all, I'm intrigued to see what the plan is.

I clearly need to get my skates on and do more than just think about next year's papers over the next few months.
