Joe, I have the same reservations - in fact ISOCNZ is in no position to do such a thing - even if it wanted to.

Have you made sure you have a well informed panel so some meaningful discussion can take place? If people are paying money to attend, then there will be an expecation that it will be a professional effort with industry participation. My attempts to find out who is participating so far have drawn a blank. regards Peter Mott Chief Enthusiast 2Day Internet Limited http://www.2day.net.nz -/- --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
