[Sigmet-officers] Webinar suggestions

Dear Jonathan,

I don't think that a non-ASIST or a non-ISSI member would pay $50 for a
webinar. Have the people you mentioned (Henk, Loet, Ronald and Wolfgang)
agreed to participate in principle?

Do you think people will spend their weekend on a webinar? Is there any
ASIST experience with holding webinars on Saturday or Sunday?

I will be away for parts of September, and if Dietmar agrees, I'd rather he
moderates the discussion.

Regards,
Judit

> ?
> My suggestions are:
> Topic: The strengths and weaknesses of using citation data.
> Time of day: Afternoon (EST) so at to be a comfortable time of day for
> members from California and Europe.
> Date of week: Saturday or Sunday.
> Month: September.
> Speakers: One from Holland (Loet or Henk) and one from Belgium (Ronald or
> Wolfgang).
> Moderator: A particularly experienced SIG/MET officer (Dietmar? or Judit).
> Cost: $14.99 for members of ASIST or ISSI; $49.99 for other people.
> ?
> Could you please let me know what you think?
