<p>UA Colleagues:</p>
<p>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. <br>
</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Best regards,<br>
—Jim DeLaHunt, Vancouver, Canada<br>

<p>Hello, UA Colleagues:</p>
<p>I want to be sure this group sees the call for participation
for the Internationalisation and Unicode Conference, which takes
place this October 14-16, 2020, in Santa Clara, California, USA.
Do you want to propose a talk? If so, the deadline is this
Friday, March 6, in the UTC-8 timezone.<br>
</p>
<div class="moz-forward-container">
<p>Many of you know the Internationalisation and Unicode
Conference. For those who don't, it is a gathering of those
who define The Unicode Standard for text, as well as
architects of fonts, text rendering, and beyond that into
software engineering aspects of internationalisation and
localisation. About 100% of the audience are solidly in
favour of the values and goals of Universal Acceptance.
However, much fewer than 100% know what the Universal
Acceptance Group does, and what the current successes and
obstacles are. I think Universal Acceptance should not be
absent from this conference.</p>
<p>If anyone has questions about this conference, I have been
attending for many years, and I would be happy to answer them.
Others on this list are probably even more expert than I am.</p>
<p>Best regards,<br>
—Jim DeLaHunt, Vancouver, Canada<br>
