Shooting the messenger TAINT org -- I am careful never to impose my concept of spam on anybody else. I agree with Justin Mason, if a user says it's not spam, it's not spam. That's how I can trim Spamnix. Its rules cause certain emails to automatically transfer to the Spamnix folder. I can use the widgets to inform the program that a piece it identifies as spam is mail I would like to read up front. I think even the most vocal spam attackers would want this kind of flexible filtering. Justin Mason: Shooting the Messenger x_ref1482

International participants expect easy connectivity WIT HOTSPOT -- I hope this is the last year that ILTA runs a conference without hotspot connectivity. You can find a hotspot in TSSG but getting one near the venues means you're nearby my Buffalo Airport setup. Conferences with international delegates need easy international connectivity. In today's world, that's Wi-Fi. If all attendees had that capability, the EdTech 2003 event could flow into the blogosphere, elevating the stature of the proceedings and increasing the chance for meaningful funded research collaboration. ILTA runs annual EdTech events. x_ref1016
