On behalf of the Irigaray Circle, we would like to express our deepest thanks to all those who made our 2nd annual conference on the philosophy of Luce Irigaray such an overwhelming success. Thank you: To Luce Irigaray for your inspirational work that brought us all together, for the generosity of your time. To our keynote speakers, Elizabeth Grosz and Elaine Miller. Your exceptional papers and enthusiasm for the conference and the works presented there was exemplary. To the presenters, respondents, and moderators. Your participation in the conference was invaluable and the work produced will impact Irigaray scholarship significantly. Without you this conference could not have occurred. To Sara McNamara, Danae Mcleod, and Mary Rawlinson, for all your tireless efforts in organizing such an incredible conference.

As planning for the third annual Irigaray Circle conference commences, we are full of anticipation for what the next year in Irigaray scholarship will bring. We look forward to seeing you all in September 2008. Until then…
