Dear Fellows and Friends,
Here's a notice about a Consortium for School Networking (CosN) conference in DC
on Feb. 24-26. Your work as AM Fellows would be a terrific contribution.
Anyone interested in presenting should think about posting a message to that
effect -- you might be able to make some interesting joint presentations.
Cheers, Bill
