****************************************************************************
The C-Fest will sponsor MOO meetings beginning this Thursday evening,
January 30th, to discuss the CCCC C-FEST Special Interest Group (SIG)
session that will be held in Phoenix during CCCC, on March 13 from
6:45-7:45pm.  The SIG theme is "The Audience Delivers Hypertext."  C-FEST
was organized last year prior to the 1996 CCCC in Milwaukee to discuss
issues related to conference presentation formats, rhetorical delivery,
and how technology is changing the way our conferences are organized, and
delivered (among other key topics).

Our meetings are informal and substantive. In the C-FEST Forum at Lingua
MOO participants may also post ideas and suggestions to the C-FEST ideas
board, and obtain instructions for subscribing to the C-FEST email
discussion list, and how to contribute to the hypertext created and
maintained by Matthew Levy for this special CCCC event.  We invite anyone
and everyone to join in these discussion this spring as we approach the
conference, and as we host post-conference meetings to continue the
discussions generated while in Phoenix.  Those who are unable to attend
CCCC are especially invited to attend these online sessions to add their
voices to these important discussions. As always, these meetings are
recorded and the transcripts available on the Lingua MOO Archive and
Resource page, or by email (see instructions in the C-FEST Forum at
Lingua).
