I have sent this message on behalf of Jeffrey Gibson, who is organising a
meeting of E-Listers at the upcoming SBL-AAR Annual meeting in San Diego.
Please direct replies to Jeffrey (jgibson000 AT comcast.net). The message follows
beneath.

=======================
 
With apologies for cross posting.

It's that time of year again when the Society of Biblical Literature's
Annual Meeting is just round the corner (Nov. 17th - Nov. 20th) and I
begin to arrange the now traditional (11th annual!) gathering of all
those NT and Biblical and Biblically related e-list members (i.e.
XTalkers, B-Greeks, and members of Corpus Paulinum, John-Lit, Kata
Markon, Biblical Studies, T-C List, Ioudaios, Synoptic-L, Aramaic,
ANE-2, etc. ) who will be going to San Diego for the SBL
conference.

[For those of you who do not know what the Society of Biblical
Literature is and/or are unfamiliar with the SBL Annual Meeting, go
first to

http://www.sbl-site.org/

and then to

http://www.sbl-site.org/congresses/Congresses_AnnualMeeting.aspx].

The informal E-Listers' meeting is planned for Saturday, Nov. 17th at
11:30 a.m. (tentatively) at the Gorgias Press Booth (# 732) in the San
Diego Convention Center Exhibit Hall G-F.

As attendees of previous meetings know, this gathering is a great
opportunity to place a face to an one hitherto known only as an
electronic personality and/or to renew acquaintances made at previous
SBLs.

As I've done in the past 10 years in arranging this meeting, I'd like to

get an advance head count of those of you who are intending to attend
this year's SBL.

I'd also like to know who among the intended attendees is presenting a
paper during the conference (and at what time and place and within what
SBL group or section and under what title).

So this is the first call to write me OFF LIST at jgibson000 AT comcast.net

and let me know the following:

(a) if you will be attending;

(b) if and when and under what aegis (i.e., SBL/AAR Section and Session
#) you are presenting a paper,

(c) your paper title, AND

(d) what you consider to be your "home" E-List.

I'll keep everyone updated as the info comes in to me.

Again, write to me OFF LIST (jgibson000 AT comcast.net) and please use a
header that says something like "SBL e-listers' meeting".

May I ask that if you are letting me know that you are giving a paper,
that you adhere as closely as possible to the SBL/AAR Program Book
Format when you do so. That is to say, I'd be grateful if you'd
compose your information according to this formula:

Name and Institution
Section #
Title of Section
Date
Time
Room
Theme
Paper title

For example:

Mark Goodacre
S19-122
Q
11/19/2007
4:00 PM to 6:30 PM
Room: Emma C - GH

Theme: The Mark-Q Overlaps
Mark Goodacre, Duke University
Taking Leave of Mark-Q Overlaps: Major Agreements in Matthew 3.7-12 //
Mark 1.7-8 // Luke 3.7-9, 15-17

Looking forward to seeing you in San Diego!

Yours,

Jeffrey Gibson
