Hi, Roger.

If I do go to the CASDW conference, I will most definitely pay for and 
stay an extra day to be part of an Inkshed gathering. Where does one 
find detailed information about the CASDW conference, though? I went to 
the link on the CASDW homepage and found dates and a location - nothing 
more.
