... I'm not sure the fonts did what we wanted them to do when converting to pdf.  Is it just me?

[kjayers]

Yep.  It's just me. *eyeroll*

Thank you for these. Quick clarifying question. In the following sentence, with "She" referring to Dawn as Vice, could you please clarify for what "CWE" is an acronym? The sentence is:
"She is also recruiting a CWE Manager to coordinate with colleges."
Is this regarding seeking possible internships/college credit for volunteers/staff/panelists?
Thank you.

Yes, CWE stands for Cooperative Work Experience, and that's exactly the idea.  When the job descriptions get posted, details will be available.

Thank you. I'm very excited that there is a position for this. (I helped someone get a college credit for their Creation Station work this year, and have strongly supported increasing outreach in this area, in another thread.) For the purposes of this thread, however, I was simply suggesting that the acronym be spelled out in the minutes, since many readers would not recognize it. Thanks, as always, for your diligence!

Awesome!  My old buddy Austin is staffing this year!  This is gonna be fun!

I asked during the mini-con when and where the next meeting was.  I know that I remember it being in Tigard, but I don't remember the time or where in Tigard the meeting will be.  It'll help with planning out the bus route/s I'll need to take.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Never mind.  Another post has answered this question for me.

I thought it might.

^ Yup.  Thanks, Jo!
