hello -

one of the conferences that I am an organizer for, the O'Reilly
Tools of Change (in publishing) conference, has an open call
for submissions.  

http://en.oreilly.com/toc2008/public/content/home

this would be a great place for DLF folks to participate - there
will be talks on digital texts, libraries, publishing (new models
thereof), rights, and many other very pertinent issues.  also a
great networking forum :).

in addition to contributing to some of the speaker lists, I am
on the paper review panel, so DLF suggestions won't get lost.
