Hello,

It might be a good suggestion for NAFEX to video tape various speakers and then sell the talks on DVD. A great fundraiser, tutorial, membership driving, activity.

Just making a suggestion.

Some one told me that one of the speakers is knowledgeable in fruit-tree
patenting &/or licensing. Is anyone going to the meeting who knows which
speaker it is? Anyone willing to take notes and post them to this listserv
(w/ speaker's permission)?
