Dear Colleagues:

The MIREX 2006 participants will be convening at the International
Conference on Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR 2006 (Oct. 8-12),
Victoria, BC) to discuss the results and to plan for next year's
MIREX 2007. If you are interested in things Music Information
Retrieval, a visit to the ISMIR 2006 web page would be very much
worth your time as this year's papers and posters are very strong!:

A special thanks to all that help make MIREX 2006 possible,

Cheers,
Stephen
