--- begin forwarded text Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 09:51:21 -0500 To: dcsb@ai.mit.edu, dcsb-announce@ai.mit.edu From: Robert Hettinga <rah@shipwright.com> Subject: DCSB Call for Speakers Sender: bounce-dcsb@ai.mit.edu Reply-To: Robert Hettinga <rah@shipwright.com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- The Program Committee of the Digital Commerce Society invites any member of the dcsb mailing lists to submit their proposal for a luncheon talk to the Society. Speakers can be any *principal* in any field of digital commerce. That means anyone who is doing interesting research or development in, or who is making significant market innovation in, the technology, finance, economics, law, or policy of commerce on the global public internetwork. The Committee tends to consider the person giving the talk first, and then gives the speaker lots of discretion in the content of their talk -- as long as it pertains to DCSB's charter to promote innovation in internet commerce. The Society's meetings are held on the first Tuesday of the month at the Downtown Branch of the Harvard Club of Boston, One Federal Street, Thirty-Eighth Floor, in Boston, from 12 to 2 in the afternoon. Unfortunately, the Society can not remunerate a speaker for any fees or expenses other than, obviously, the speaker's lunch, and basic overhead projection equipment. There is dial-up internet access for the meeting room. If you, or anyone you know, are interested in speaking to the society, please send, via email, a proposal, consisting of a single paragraph on the speaker, and a single paragraph on the proposed talk, to Robert Hettinga <mailto: rah@shipwright.com>, the chairman of the DCSB Program Committee, and the Society's Moderator. A list of previous speakers can be obtained with the following URL <mailto:majordomo@ai.mit.edu?body=info%20dcsb>, or, if your mailreader/browser doesn't support mailtos, send info dcsb in the *body* of a message to majordomo@ai.mit.edu . Thank you for considering DCSB in your speaking plans, and, if you have any questions on your submission, please contact me directly. Cordially, Robert A. Hettinga Moderator and Program Committee Chair, The Digital Commerce Society of Boston -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.5.5 iQEVAwUBNhTb/sUCGwxmWcHhAQHO2Qf/czV5QvJpM8RsX7UPydK0XAigPU6z+KxR 7sRwSOG+uguMLcEgvp+UItAOtXQc4ZGxMZib3LyqS9Hq3iZVHWTJkY/Qvk9kGUYH WNia7+1JTWfpeScDn8VSLQP4SgXSDXPoAagzxkTGs8fOuuwndb3TeDQOsTZvC/Br +Cb6cH5AM1rUr8IZBw7VJoLAkf0Hi3f1rtrWOp0lQ6DMcTVkfXy3lfa7scVXP90+ Wswa40wCrCp0O1N9mwhZa9BKGzztlksMRZzDLKVZe8tXqBMqdnQ6Un8cLLHIWdpK PFs32XSN9YqXvUQozsthc2Ao0rz4wqlTE26UNhcwCqDff04KrJ5/BA== =IhaG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ----------------- Robert A.
