Re: Silver pre-CSUN Face-to-face

Hi All,

Won’t be attending CSUN but also wont be able to do the Remote meeting since it will be too late from India.

Look forward to the next F2F.

Hi All,
At 72 with asthma and a wife the same age with respiratory issues, I have decided to pass on CSUN. For those of you who would attend my, "How to Learn Mathematics with Low Vision" I am sorry. Maybe I can present it next year.

I may just write articles from here on out. I will really miss seeing my friends. CSUN is such a wonderful event.

Take care everyone,

Wayne

Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and many others have canceled their CSUN delegations.

That said, I hope to join some of the F2F discussions remotely.

All,

In light of Covid-19 goings on, we wanted to reach out about the Silver F2F Meeting at CSUN 2020<https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/silver/wiki/2020_March_F2F_Meeting_at_CSUN>. So far, CSUN, the meeting, and many of us attending will all still happen, with everyone keeping a close eye on everything while purchasing as much hand sanitizer as possible.

That said, if you would prefer not to attend the face to face meeting, we'll absolutely understand and support you in that! We already planned to ensure folks could participate remotely, and we'll work to make sure that goes as smoothly as Zakim & Webex allow.

Note: If you responded positively in the attendance survey, but will no longer attend in person, please do let us know so that we can take that into account for the a/v equipment and any food things to order.

We'll let you know if anything changes!

Thanks,

Shawn
