Hi all
Wearing my Southampton/CAA hat, it would certainly be wonderful to
have Digital Classicists come and join us. As we all know, there is
never quite as much interaction between the two communities as we
would like and fortunately it doesn't clash with CA this time :-)
Stuart Dunn and I ran a successful session on an associated theme at
CAA 2011: ("Digging with words: e-text and e-archaeology"
http://www.caa2011.org/#cfp|default) (there was a parallel session at
CA) so there's a guaranteed audience among the archaeologists. I'm
happy to chair something again if needs be but as I've already put in
a proposal for a session on Open Content I'd personally be delighted
if someone else wanted to arrange something and bring in some fresh
thinking!
Best
Leif
