[Roleplaying] DiGRA 2007 panels

[Frans Mäyrä]

Hi,

You can still submit panel proposals (plus papers attached to panels) 
until April 15th, see:

http://www.digra2007.jp/Callforpaper.html

"The deadline for panel proposals is April 15 24:00, Apia Time (GMT 
-1100). The selection will be based on panel proposals. A panel session 
will have two hours, and a panel proposal should be up to 800 words in 
addition to all the full papers in the panel. Authors and organizers of 
panels will be requested to specify a relevant thematic focus and their 
relevant disciplinary backgrounds."

- So, you need someone to coordinate the panel proposal, and invite all 
relevant people to join the session with their papers.

Best,

-- Frans

>>   Hi everyone
>>
>>   Concerning DIGRA 2007, I was wondering if anyone knows what panels  
>>  that will operate at the conference?
>>
>>   With only 50 papers being accepted for the main conference, these   
>> will probably go to people with "a name" i.e. not humble   
>> PhD-students like myself, so panel submissions seem to be the way to  
>>  go.
>>
>>   According to the DiGRA website panel submissions - including all   
>> full papers fo the panels - has a deadline on April 15th. But how do  
>>  we as authors locate the panels before that time?
>>
>>   Also, I was curious, how many of you are planning on heading over   
>> to Tokyo for the conference?
>>
>>   Thanks for your help with this guys.

>>   Best Regards
