[Dtb-talk] FW: DAISY Planet for November 2011

[Andrews, David B (DEED)]

Dear Members, Friends and Supporters of DAISY, 

The November 2011 issue of the DAISY Planet is published on the DAISY website at: http://www.daisy.org/planet-2011-11. 

There are 5 Feature articles in this issue of the DAISY Planet. The Bits & Pieces column this month contains a great deal of information and is therefore somewhat longer than it usually is. 

The 15th anniversary series this month is Vision Australia. Many thanks to Andrew Furlong for  writing the article "Vision Australia: Recollections of a DAISY Producer". It contains quite a bit of history as well as information about new developments at VA. 

I've touched on the WIPO/SCCR23 meeting in the Letter from the Editor. The conclusions will be reached at the end of this week and I plan to include a feature article on the highlights and results to publish with the December DAISY Planet. 

The "Story" this month is the first of the two-part story from Dominique Burger. If you have attended a CSUN Conference it is quite likely you will have met Dominique. Thank you Dominique for sharing your story with us. 

Please note that the December issue of our newsletter will be published during the week of December 19 so that it will reach as many of you as possible before the holiday season gets underway. 

As always thanks to each of you for your suggestions, ideas and news for the Planet. Letters to the Editor are always greatly appreciated. 

Please forward this email to everyone you know who may be interested in reading about DAISY, the DAISY Consortium and other topics of interest to the DAISY community. 

All members of our mailing lists receive "The DAISY Planet". 

Kind regards to all,
Lynn
