Hi Roberto - replying off list,

The 2005 meeting has already been organized, so we couldn't do this until 2006 (it's 2004 now! Time sure does fly...)

Hello List,

At Kzoo next year there are at least three groups sponsoring a total of five sessions with an electronic focus - Digital Medievalist, the Oxford Text Archive, and Research in Computing for Humanities. Dan O'Donnell and I were discussing the problem of market saturation that might come from having so many similar sessions, and he suggested that we look into organizing a mini DM conference-within-a-conference for next year's (2006) Kalamazoo Congress. This would bring together all the various people who regularly organize digital sessions and sell them to the Congress organizers as a group. The Institute for Cistercian Studies at Western Michigan has been doing something similar for years (as long as the Congress itself, I believe) with great success. I think this is a super idea - what do others think?

I agree, that would great. But were you thinking of Kzoo 2005 or 2006? Can we organize it for Kzoo 2005?

Ciao
