- THIS NEEDS SOME WORK to put all the Federation needs on the table: I know this is a first draft... We need to look at how we can accommodate the face to face needs of the Federation as an organization... (e.g., standing committees [remember these?] not just the near-term opportunity tasks. AND we need to train the NTO leaders to run sessions that get people to promise NEXT STEPS between meetings... so that people leave engaged and ready to work...bruce c 16:13, 2 October 2006 (EDT)

Reception.... with a share-fair...
MORE IDEAS: NOT set up as a poster session, but with BOF tables... so people can drink and talk sitting down and move around... like a banquet without food...
I LIKE the virtual poster idea... I also think that people should be encouraged to bring 81/2 by 11 handouts for the share fair....
