[rtpnet-tact] Can you help find participants for the conference???

[Judy Hallman]

To RTPnet-TACT and RTPnet members and friends :

Registration for the RTPnet conference is lighter than we expected. We 
have great content and sponsorship and would like to have more people 
attending.

Please think of people who could benefit from the conference and invite
them to register by Monday, May 16. We have to turn in our final numbers
Tuesday morning.

Here's the message I've been sending:
