Gary,
 
I keep forgetting to tell you that the next BANA open forum is going to be
held in Missouri, at the St. Louis Hilton Frontenac, on April 28 at 9:00 AM.
There will certainly be a press release about it soon, but I wanted you to
know as soon as possible. This is part of BANA's spring board meeting, which
is being held in conjunction with the National Braille Association's spring
conference.
Here is the blurb from NBA's registration booklet:
 

Please join BANA at an Open Forum at the NBA conference on Saturday morning.
This forum provides an opportunity for participants to learn more about the
workings of BANA and to provide feedback to the Board about braille. BANA
Board members want to hear participants' views about issues surrounding
braille and its future. Braille readers, teachers, and producers of braille
are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to participate in a
round-table discussion and to engage in a dialogue with the members of the
BANA Board.
