[nabs-l] Conference call- Election discussion forum

[Jedi]

Joseph,

That's a great idea. Why not e-mail your suggestion to the list or to 
someone who you would like to speak your suggestion at the conference. 
I imagine that there's a way to make the conference procedings 
available to interested persons after the fact?

Respectfully,
Jedi
