Enjoy the experience. One thing that really caught my eye in your post was your aside that the commercial version would be available this summer. Could you elaborate on where you heard this. I'd love to be able to tell folks who ask me about this a date to look forward to. Thanks, Ron Hi Peter,

In addition to this program, the School of Computer has 6 interdisciplinary Ph.D. programs: Robotics, Language Technologies, Human Computer Interaction, Machine Learning, Software Engineering, and “Computation, Organizations, and Society“. Any Ph.D. student in any of these programs can have any faculty member in the entire School of Computer Science for an advisor, but each program runs its own graduate admissions. And so the graduate recruiting I described previously was for only the core Computer Science Ph.D. program, and in fact the total number of Ph.D. students entering a School of Computer Science doctoral program is pretty large, well over 60 each year.
