Jeff, I don't mind if you prove what Ajax/SVG/etc can do in some sub-part of the homepage, but I still don't think we should put it as a barrier at the very...
Andreas, I'm rather looking at taking a mid-tier approach to this. A few basic concepts I see at work here: 1) I do not (yet) see the SVG Open site have...
well I am not against using Ajax and SVG where it makes sense. But we don't have to use it just because it exists for content where it is not needed or...

A couple of points: 1. Server location/hosting In my very humble and quiet opinion, I see no problem with the current location of the server. Setup for the...
There's been some beating up of Ajax (and even SVG) with respect to useful applications vs. eye-candy. I'm sure many of as many of us are tired of the term...
Hi Robert, I agree about associating AJAX with SVG, just not sure how important that is for the website. I think that a track of "SVG with other technologies"...
A track at the Open would be a great idea. Presentations in that vein should be accessable to a wider web development audience. I haven't done any kind of real...
on svgopen.org/2006 it is long promised to mention the date soon, and while it has been public for a while ( http://svg.org/story/2005/10/30/1132/8068 ) now is...
Hi all, Unfortunately I have to inform you that I had a disk crash on the server hosting www.carto.net and www.svgopen.org - the server might be down for 2-4...
Greetings all, I want to apologize for dropping off the face of the earth here for a bit - between the XML conference, getting two books written and trying to...
Dear Kurt, thank you for your status update and the work you put into the conference organisation. While I agree on many issues you propose, I think that the...
Kurt, i agree with Andreas; Some of the things you mention are great, but somewhat extra, don't let them slow down essential things. Tap into the community,...
Kurt, Ruud. Just a couple of points on the audio visual equipment. 1. The Faculty of Arts has a lot of audio/video equipment. You might be able to rent this...
Hello, I just filled in the date in the preliminary site (http://www.svgopen.org/2006). I also fixed the problems with the old site after our disk crash....
Dear friends, I hope that your holidays have been enjoyable, and that things are looking bright for you in the new year. Those of you who know me know that I...
Greetings, last summer, got together with Jon Phillips and Ted Gould at SIGGRAPH. I think it wise to consider asking them to participate here and to...
Hi all, I just spoke to the SVG Open 2005 video-guy. As he is very busy developing videolan and related stuff, it took a while, but he's now almost done...

Ruud, Sorry not to get back to you sooner. I have web-hosting for the SVG 2006 conference now in place and the web site itself is in the design phases. I had...
Hi Kurt, good to hear, that the website will soon be available. I think the most important thing now is to get the call for papers out and some preliminary...

The conference is only half a year a way and apart from the city and the date nothing is publicly available. It's no problem if the website is a bit minimal...
I second that. Please put more information and the call for papers online. It would very much hurt me, if this year's conference would fail, due to a lack of...
