If IBUC were to host a fairly small, low-key, impromptu conference on bearer finance and geodesic markets at the Downtown Harvard Club of Boston in, um, January, would anyone be interested in coming?
As part of another project I'd gotten the Harvard Club to pencil in a couple of days a while (I just asked them in email to refresh my memory about exactly when :-)), and I'm still holding the dates at the moment on the off-chance people might want to get together for a combination gathering of the clan and what-now planning session. A light-weight agenda (depending on who shows up and what they want to talk about, obviously) should include the current state of the technology, regulation, and markets for instantaneous and bearer-settled markets on ubiquitous geodesic networks, along with various proposals for making those markets happen in light of recent events. For instance, IBUC's done a bunch of work on that so far, so it's probably a good idea to compare notes with anyone who's interested, for instance. At least the hotel rates, and apparently, airfares, are cheap that time of year, and I bet we can't be accused of promoting a junket to some tropical tropical tax-haven this time around... :-). Let me know directly, and, if there's sufficient interest on such short notice, I'll get started on this in earnest. Cheers, RAH -- ----------------- R. A.
