Subject: opportunity to represent Publishing@W3C at IDEAlliance event in NYC
April 17

 

Hi, IDEAlliance (magazine focused trade and standards association) is
holding an event in NYC on April 17 and would like to have a panel about
Publishing@W3C. Unfortunately neither myself nor Karen Myers is available
but if one or two Steering Committee members are in NYC that day and could
do it I think it would be a good opportunity. certainly not a "must do"
particularly given short notice for the invitation, but worthwhile given our
need to expand the community to get representation from additional
communities. Please LMK if interested or directly respond to their CTO and
organizer for the event Dianne Kennedy (Dianne Kennedy
dkennedy@idealliance.org <mailto:dkennedy@idealliance.org> ) (and in that
case please cc: Karen and myself).


Thanks!
