[Wamvan] 2012 WAM! Vancouver Conference - Call for Workshop Ideas

[E J]

Hi Joanna,

Hmm...I'm inclined to think it would be best to keep the brainstorming to
people who are likely to attend the conference, but I don't have strong
feelings about it either way. I'd love to get some input from other WAMcore
members. It may be beneficial to get some ideas from others, particularly
if there doesn't end up being much input from this listserv.

Elyse
