    Talk works best when you have information to impart, discussion
    works best if you are looking for input / shared approaches.<br>
    <br>
    If UA looks different for different protocols/processes/programs

            <p>Hello, colleagues:<o:p></o:p></p>
            <p>I'm a big fan of, and regular participant in, the annual
              Internationalization and Unicode Conference (IUC), brought
              to us by the people who brought us Unicode. I imagine that
              people who are interested in Universal Acceptance are
              likely to be interested in this conference, and may well
              have important contributions they could make to it.<o:p></o:p></p>
            <p>So, #1, I'd like to make everyone in UASG aware that the
              IUC has a call for participation. The deadline for
              proposals is Friday, 24. March, 2017. Please consider
              proposing a talk if you have something that the IUC
              audience would benefit from.<o:p></o:p></p>
            <p>And, #2, I don't recall there being a proper presentation
              of the UASG activity at the IUC conference. (Dave Crocker
              gave a 5-minute "lightning talk" about Universal
              Acceptance and the UASG, but that was barely enough time
              to say that it existed.)<o:p></o:p></p>
            <p>I would like to see a proposal about the Universal
              Acceptance Initiative submitted to the conference this
              year. If someone is already working on this, I would like
              to talk to you off-list and see if it makes sense to work
              together. If there is no existing effort, I would like to
              start one. I welcome collaboration. I will see to it that
              a proposal gets submitted.<o:p></o:p></p>
