This List tries to maintain contact with the National support groups
and will publish conference information when it is available in the
reference file (CALENDAR), available from the LISTSERV(R) or at our
archive sites.  It will be added to the StJohns WWW site in the next
updates to the files.

A few weeks back, I posted the inital information about the conference

is the updated conference schedule:
