<P><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have reserved the Redbud room at the Friday Center in Chapel Hill for Friday May 20 for another RPTnet conference. If you think that date is not good or you have suggestions for a different place, please let me know (hallman@rtpnet.org).</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We are also thinking about incorporating community technology awards into the conference itself, rather than having a later social hour, as we did last year.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am hoping that this year we will be able to divide up the work using Tech LinkUp (</FONT></SPAN><A HREF="http://www.techlinkup.org"><SPAN LANG="en-us"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://www.techlinkup.org</FONT></U></SPAN></A><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> ). Our two Americorps*VISTAs, Damita Chambers and Vahid Nourani (see their Web pages at </FONT></SPAN><A HREF="http://www.rtpnet.org/chambers/"><SPAN LANG="en-us"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://www.rtpnet.org/chambers/</FONT></U></SPAN></A><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> and </FONT></SPAN><A HREF="http://www.rtpnet.org/nourani/"><SPAN LANG="en-us"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">http://www.rtpnet.org/nourani/</FONT></U></SPAN></A><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> ), will help with that planning. We will post messages to the RTPnet-TACT list as we identify our needs.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Meanwhile, there is a discussion forum for planning the conference at</FONT></SPAN>

<BR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Essentially, you probably want to register and login before you post; then you can edit what you posted, if you need to.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">You can also preview your message before you post it.</FONT></SPAN>
<BR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">And there's BB code for formatting that is very similar to HTML.</FONT></SPAN>
