[Steven Clift]

I would like to  would like to invite you to an important gathering that
mixes digital inclusion for diverse community voices, neighborhood and
civic engagement, and open government.
I will be in town briefly to lead the session. A similar gathering in
Seattle was a big success with dozens of community organizations attending.

In addition to the public workshop, on the 15th I am hosting a Digital
Democracy Drinks gathering at the Clift Hotel :-) in the evening:
