Forum .LRN Q&A: Re: Res: Re: OpenACS/.LRN Conference_______Costa Rica 2009

Hi Cristina,

I was invited by Alvaro and Rocael to be part of the 8th OpenACS/.LRN Conference: Program Committee (in particular, chair of the Evaluation commitee of the conference), and I accepted 😊. So I guess my name (Olga C. Santos) should be in that list, too.

When the website is ready, I can disseminate the conference in several mailing lists, as well as review the submissions received, as I've done in past editions of this and other conferences. I'm happy to help!

Thanks.

Olga
