Hi Sara
Thanks for your suggestions - and would be great to have you on board with this!
So far things are looking quite positive with quite a number of paper suggestions - which I will write up into a more formal proposal for a special issues shortly, but before I do I was wondering whether you think Area would be happy to support this as an SI - and what sort of time frame we would be looking at.
Thanks for your support
best wishes

Hi Sophie, Hi everyone on the list, Kia ora koutou katoa,
I'd be keen to write something from an Antipodean perspective drawing on
some exciting devleopments here in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia,
possibly even into the South Pacific. Would that be of interest?
Also happy to lend my editorial labour should that be strategically and
practically useful.
Hope the conference goes well for you all. I'm sorry not to be able to be
there.
Best wishes
Sara
