Re: [Indic-computing-standards] Important: Forming Organization Committee

[Venkatesh \(Venky\) H. <ve...@me...>]

I notice that we haven't heard from Koshy and Keyur yet.

Koshy, would you like to lead the encoding session.

Keyur, would you like to lead the fonts session.

We would love it if both of you agreed to lead the respective sessions.
Alternately, can you please suggest someone else? We want to freeze the
names of the session leaders so that we have enough time to come up with an
event that takes the whole movement forward in a substantive way. In other
words, this should not end up being just another workshop, just another
waste of time and money.

Session leaders would be expected to think through what would be discussed
in their sessions, circulate essential background documents to this list so
that participants at the workshop come thoroughly prepared. Wherever
neccessary, session leaders may even have to write white papers. For
example, Tapan is working on a white paper on Unicode and Karunakar is
working on a white paper on Open Type Fonts.

I'll also send a note out on sponsorship for the event, costs, main heads of
expenses etc by the end of this week. If you know any one willing to be a
sponsor or are open to being a sponsor yourself, let me know.

Regards,

Venky
