Actually, that was me, fishing for topics to develop conference
sessions on (okay -- on which to develop conference sessions! --
better???<g>). Thanks for the opening! <evil-G>
I am currently developing "I know there are tasks in there somewhere!
--How to write a task-based developer's guide." (sometimes the catchy,
overly long session title is the hardest part!) I've submitted the
session to the Region 8 STC conference, which will be held in Irvine
CA in November and to the Annual STC Conference -- Nashville in May 2002.
While I have not yet received notice of acceptance yet, they've never
turned down my technical sessions before. <blush demurely>
I'm hopin' the paper will hit my web site shortly before the Nashville
conference, but it's not unlike me to be still composing the paper in
my head as I make my way to the podium. I'll let y'all know.
A landmark hotel, one of America's most beautiful cities, and
three and a half days of immersion in the state of the art:
