Greetings,
This is special invitation to the Markle Foundation's E-Mail
for All Universal Access Conversation next week. One goal of this
event is to offer a "value-added" moment for the sharing of knowledge
and experience on themes related to universal access to e-mail and
Internet. We are seeking timely short essays, policy questions,
and your recommendations on links for the theme web pages (please
use the web site form.)
By gathering a diverse audience from many perspectives and
backgrounds we hope to provide an opportunity for greater dialogue
and long-term networking. When the event is over on May 15, we will
list the scores of online forums across the Internet (if submitted
via our form) where similar discussions are ongoing.
It is clear that with most Internet policy issues the "intelligence
is in the network." So please join us as we place the important
access issues on the table for discussion and greater understanding.
Sincerely,
Steven Clift
