This is the basic plan, Robyn. NAPC is on Weds/Thurs/Fri. People can buy a
ticket to NAPC, or BRCC, or both. NAPC working groups may continue into the
weekend if they like, to harvest energies from the larger groups.

We are pursuing feedback from many elders, mid-level designers and newer
designers, with weight being given to the words of elders. But not all of
the elders agree on everything, and that is part of the dance.

Best, Koreen
