From the Unicode conference, let me say, that yes, there is a conference
underway.  Certainly many people who planned to attend are no longer able.
So far, about ten of our speakers are unable to make travel arrangements.

To the best of my knowledge, no one involved in the conference was in New
York or on one of the flights involved in today's tragedies.

We have contacted most of the speakers who have not been able to travel,
and they are well, and many are still planning on coming.

So, if you are in the Bay Area, and wish to attend, please do so - we would
very much like to see you.

Lisa
