Folks,
We have been getting several enquiries to add topics for discussion at the
convention. If those of you who have registered for the convention send in what
you are interested in, we could make the arrangements or to point you to
the appropriate workshop/presentation/discussion.
For those Goa-netters who want to meet and put a face to the names on the
emails you have been reading all this time, again send us an email and we can
arrange a formal or informal meeting.
Lastly, the University has state of the art electronic facilities. We will be
recording the debates, workshops, etc. and put them on the website after the
convention.
