Panel, seeking Speakers ASAP!
 

The Demoscene Outreach Group is planning a Panel session for Siggraph 2002. The deadline has unfortunately crept up on us, it is January 16th! 

In the next 8 days we need to collect and confirm speakers and MAIL their application forms in (thus we may need rush services and overseas speakers need to be arranged faster). 

We can use some DOG members to flesh out the panel but we'd like to get some great outsiders in. Now's the time to pull any contacts you may know, sorry for the late notice.

The Birds of a Feather session last year went very well, hopefully we can top it. ( http://www.scene.org/dog/sig01writeup.html )

>> Anyone who is a student can get free registration and housing and apply for possible travel grants (they must volunteer some time at the conference) <<

We'd like to find:

• Current Active Sceners
• Previously Active, Now Employed (for example at a game company)
• Industry Representatives Interest in the Scene (I.E. hire from sceners, or talk to them often, or in any other way find the Scene good for them)
