Alternative Conference to SCMS

[Aaron Gerow]

Some people have been trying to rescue a few of the special panels  
(many of which were in Japanese), but since these were mostly  
arranged separately, I don't know how this has all been communicated  
with those participants. The fact is that there will be no  
simultaneous translation--in fact no translation at all unless  
someone volunteers.

This will have to be a conference based on a lot of volunteer help.  
If there is a special panel you or someone else wants to save, I'm  
afraid it's going to require someone just taking the reins and  
working it through. Just let me, Markus and Akira Lippit know what  
you want to do.
