[For those who received this message earlier, sorry for duplicate posting.
I wanted to be sure to get this in the community archive.]
To: Registrants for the Engelbart Colloquium at Stanford: An In-depth Look
at the Unfinished Revolution."
Hello!
Doug Engelbart here, welcoming you to the online community associated
with
the Stanford Colloquium. I would like to emphasize that the purpose of
the
Colloquium and community is not just to transfer information/knowledge,
but
also to begin the development and evolution of an appropriate Improvement
Infrastructure -- scalable to national and global inclusion.
I have no question about it: the outcome and results of this effort will
be
ultimately determined by the collective participation of many individuals
and organizations around the world. As I emphasized in the first
session,
this is not an "Engelbart Revolution," but a global shift that must
someday
occur in our societies and our world.
Should you have questions about either the online or the face-to-face
colloquium forums, please do not hesitate to contact the colloquium TA's.
Marcelo Hoffman (marcelo@future.sri.com) is the TA for the
auditorium-based
forum and Hilary LaMonte (hlamonte@nsba.org) is the TA for the online
forum.
Both are available through the online community as well.
Thank you for joining this Colloquium. I hope that you will take an
active
part in catalyzing this process for our collective benefit.
Best wishes,
Doug Engelbart
