+Hello all -
+
+Are you planning to attend - or thinking of attending - this year's
+Computers, Freedom and Privacy conference <http://www.cfp2001.org/>? If so,
+I'd like you to think about being a part of the panel discussion (debate?)
+described below (hosted by OpenPrivacy <http://www.openprivacy.org/>). Of
+course, we're rather privacy-centric, but we want to cover both sides of the
+issue. [I've only got one person identified on the marketing side of things
+so far, so if you have additional suggestions there, I'd love to hear
+them. (change if I find more in CFP attendee list...)]
+
+Please let me know ASAP if you think you might want to be involved in this
+(the deadline for submitting our panel proposal is January 5th and I'd like
+to have it in by the 3rd). If you're on board, please send complete contact
+information (no privacy here - yet!) and a short bio for inclusion in the
+proposal. Also, if you have any suggestions on how to add impact to the
+description below ( which is limited to 100 words and is currently slightly
+over that), I welcome your input.
 
-[into the open? (next phase?) (a brokered, personalized, and safe place to
-conduct business?) (generation?)
+Thanks for your consideration and I hope to see you in Boston this spring.
 
-do marketers fear that total user privacy will rob them of their ability to
-target valuable profile segments, or that user control over their
-information will enable competitors to gain access to their valuable data?

-perhaps strongly verifiable and authenticatable profiles can provide greater
-value, enabling data mining techniques heretofore impossible without exposed
-and user-verifiable data.
