<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12pt'>Dear everyone,<BR>
<BR>
Next year ALW will be held on 9-11 March on North Stradbroke Island just off Brisbane.<BR>
<BR>
The workshop will not have a theme. Instead we are encouraging presentations on work and projects currently underway. We hope that the mix of papers reflects all of the work going on in Australian languages in universities, language centres and community groups around Australia.<BR>

</SPAN></FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12pt'>We are calling for <B>titles</B> of proposed papers, not just an expression of interest. The deadline for sending us titles is <B>1 December 5pm</B>. Please note that a <B>'first in' policy</B> applies i.e. the earlier you send us a title, the better chance you have of presenting. Presentation slots often fill fast, which <B>means that submitting a title by 5pm on 1 December will not guarantee a paper slot</B>. Nonetheless papers which are submitted by the deadline, but miss out on a slot, will be allocated to a waiting list.<BR>
<BR>
The venue will be the UQ Moreton Bay Research Station. There is accommodation at the research station, and food will be provided. The cost of the weekend will probably be around $175. <BR>
