Possible Expert FrameMaker Speaker for Nov 7th 2006

[Cheri Mullins]

I think we should have her. But I have some questions. 

How long will the "seminar type meeting" be?
Will it require anything on the part of the audience? (PCs? FM?)
Is there any way to make this a hands-on, how-to, fee-based seminar? We
could still have the regular meeting. Something that complements the DITA
conference content?

I guess it is, but our options are To have her or Not To have her Speak to
us.  Is that enough of a reason not to have her speak/present?
