[Squeakland] Call for Presenters! SqueakFest '06 - July 19-21

[Kim Rose]

Dear Squeaklanders,

The SqueakFest '06 website has just gone live:

http://interactive.colum.edu/partners/squeakfest/

(Also linked from the Squeakland.org homepage.)

We will continue to add to it as details become developed, but this 
is *the site* for SqueakFest '06 info and news.

Please find the "Call for Presenters" via that page.  We ask those of 
you wishing to present to submit this online form as soon as 
possible. Presentations can be in the form of hands-on workshops, 
lecture-style presentations or panel sessions.

This year, thanks to support from Motorola, DiamondCluster, Columbia 
College, Chicago, Viewpoints Research and others, registration fees 
will be *waived* for presenters.

In addition, this year we have funds to provide some travel 
scholarships/stipends ($500.00) to presenters requiring travel 
assistance. Travel stipends will awarded based on circumstance and 
time of submission of proposals (i.e, first requests considered 
first).

Submissions for presentations are due by April 30th as we need ample 
time to review, notify those acccepted, create the program, etc., etc.

Online registration will be open in the next few weeks, please check again.

Please share this announcement with friends and colleagues you know 
that might be interested in presenting their experiences, research, 
projects, ideas.

Also please share the url with anyone you know that might wish to attend!

We look forward to seeing you in Chicago, in July.

regards,
Kim Rose, Wade Roberts, Neil Pagano, Carol Ann Stowe
