About Survey Monkey (sorry, this is _the_ most boring thing ever  
posted on KineJapan)

It has really comprehensive data analysis tools it seems. You can  
browse individual surveys, and if the questions are multiple choice  
you can see stats and graphs and so on (I did warn you). If people  
enter their SCMS panel code for instance, then it would be a quick way  
of seeing which panels are "viable", and which papers need to be  
placed in new groupings.

Maybe we should anticipate that lots of the old SCMS panels will have  
to be reconstituted (ie, only if 1 or 2 people from a panel can make  
it), and have a "keywords" question, where people can tick as many  
keywords as apply. Then SurveyMonkey will cross-tabulate the answers  
and tell us that we really need a panel on Trauma and the Gaze in  
Studio Ghibli, or whatever. Obviously this would be overkill if only,  
say, 30 people are coming.

I think surveymonkey would be best. Otherwise, we could have hundreds  
of people sending "count me in!" emails to KineJapan and someone would  
have to count them all
