Re: LMNET conference

[Rosina Alaimo <Rosella@ATT.NET>]

Barbara has hit on a great idea.  And as co-chair of the 2005 AASL
Conference in Pittsburgh, I think LM_Net should go for it.

Anyone out there want to put together a proposal?  We're only in the
planning stage right now.  The committee consists of only the co-chairs.
But all that will change soon and we will be asking for proposals for
workshops.  Keep that thought in mind.
