[UA-discuss] Deadline extended to March 13 [was: Re: Call for Participation Reminder! - 44th Internationalization & Unicode Conference, Santa Clara, CA - October 14-16, 2020]

Wed Mar 11 07:04:35 UTC 2020

UA Colleagues:

The deadline to submit a proposal to this conference has been extended 
by a week. The deadline is now Friday, 13 March 2020. The rest of the 
information is unchanged.

I have submitted two proposals related to Universal Acceptance (and one 
unrelated proposal). I hope others who were considering proposals will 
take advantage of this extra week. I would like for the program 
committee to have lots of good proposals to choose from.

Best regards,
       —Jim DeLaHunt, Vancouver, Canada
