[CBW_Exec] CBW 2013--Important to READ and REPLY ALL! REPLY ALL! REPLY ALL!

[Lynn Reid]

Hi everyone,
First, thanks to all for the welcoming words. I'm looking forward to
working with each of you.

As for CBW 2013, I also support Liz's idea of the publishing and grant
writing workshop. The Computers and Writing Conference offers a similar
session as part of the Graduate Research Network, and it's by far the most
valuable part of my conference experience there every year. I wonder if we
could model their approach and ask folks to bring ideas or research in
progress for a mentoring session on publishing.

Everything else sounds fantastic for next year!
Best,
Lynn
