Looks like there are some other great speakers and sessions as well.

Hi Roger,

FYI - there will be an option to attend virtually. The virtual track will
include the keynote talk.

I'll probably announce it on the lists in a few weeks but if you sign up
for our notices at
http://accessinghigherground.org/registration2013.html#jlist you'll be sure
to get an announcement.

Regards,
Howard
