The organizing committee of DFRWS would like to extend an invitation 
to attend the 10th Annual DFRWS Conference, and help us celebrate 
this milestone event. DFRWS 2010 will be held from August 2 to 4, 
2010 in Portland, Oregon.  Our program this year will include keynote 
speakers Troy Larson from the Microsoft Corporation and Wenke Lee 
from the Georgia Institute of Technology.  We'll have a line-up of 
excellent papers as well as two panel discussions. The program for 
the conference has been posted at:

During the conference, a poster and demo session will allow attendees

developed.  You can sign up to do a demo by sending email to:

Lastly, sponsorship opportunities are still available. Sponsors of the 
conference will gain visibility for their companies, demonstrate their 
support of forensic research and development, and contribute to the 
success of the conference.  For details on sponsorship, visit:
