Thanks for the feedback, and good luck on the thesis writing: I remember that time fondly since it produced the biggest progress in my understanding of the research.
Anyway, we are working on something much more expansive than this site. This site has taught us some valuable insights that we'll incorporate in our new site we are working on. We hope to go live in September.
Could you make your colleague grad students aware of this network and see if they want to sign on? I would like to see more folks from Berkeley on this site. There aren't many sites where computational science is discussed in a blog like environment so having a venue should be a great place for grad students to go and connect and contribute. In my day it was the news groups where this activity took place and I remember those news groups fondly since they provides very up to date information.
PhD candidate in numerical methods in the University of California Berkeley computer science department. I work on rearranging linear algebra algorithms to avoid communication in the parallel case (and slow memory accesses in the sequential case), in a way that doesn't sacrifice numerical stability.
What are your interests?
Parallel numerical linear algebra, parallel programming languages and libraries, code generation and optimization
What are your skills?
Extreme hacking, singing Gregorian chant
Which CSE subdiscipline(s) would you like to network within?
ALL OF THEM ;-) I'm getting more and more interested in applying techniques from programming languages research and other fields to code generation and optimization, but I'm still very much into numerical analysis and other more "mathy" subdisciplines of CSE.

Welcome! If you like you can tell people about OSKI and the tool set you have been building.
