Dee,
It looks like the best day for folks from the PKI Steering Committee to make the call is on Wednesday, June 20 around 10am EST.
Will this work for you? How many people will be joining? I will set up a call-in number, I just need to give an estimate of how
many lines will be used.
Thanks,
Sara

We discussed the possible sponsorship options for the workshop next year. The Steering Committee is generally in support of sponsorship but they would like more information than I could provide.
Basically, we would like to more fully understand the responsibilities and benefits of sponsorship. As you know, we have broadened our scope beyond PKI, like yourselves, we realize that we need to go beyond PKI and focus on Identity Infrastructures. We would like to understand the new scope as defined by the programme committee (if there is one yet) and we would like to have input in the call for presentations. Our (IDtrust) goal is to identify new technical work and participants - this will be a fine opportunity to do so if we are all in agreement regarding the goals and expected outcome. Do you think it will be possible to increase attendance if we are able to re-invent the event?
I do not want to sound ungrateful for this opportunity and we are honored to be considered as a co-sponsor. That said, the Steering Committee needs to understand how this commitment will fit into our new strategy and we need to feel confident that this event will further our agenda.
Do you think that the other organizers would be interested in a call to toss around these ideas?
Thanks again for all your work and dependable follow-through.
Best regards,
Dee
