Dear Robert, This event looks fascinating and I would love to attend but alas distance forbids it. I am currently on a two year posting in New Zealand but until last year was at Lincoln University and the University of Nottingham prior to that. I currently working on a project that ties together knowledge management and higher education and thought your focus on KM in education very appropriate to my work. I was wondering whether you planned to video or audio tape the day's precedings? If so I was wondering if it would be possible to get a copy of this? Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.
