[My-hm] 2015 conferences

[Andrew Hsiu]

Hi Martha and Yoshihisa,

That would be wonderful! I will be in Chiang Mai from May 22 - 31.

Also, just to let you know, quite a few SEALS 25 attendees will also
be going to HLS 21, which will be held at Tribhuvan University in
Kathmandu, Nepal from June 2-3 (just after SEALS 25 -
http://www.himalayansymposium.org/kathmandu-2015-announcement), I will
leave Chiang Mai on May 31.


Best,
Andrew

A pre-conference workshop at the Sino-Tibetan meeting makes more sense, since whether or not HM/MY is part of ST is an open question: we are more peripheral there.  Maybe we can discuss the possibility of organizing a workshop at a future SEALS meeting on a focused topic, like HM discourse, HM & language contact, or the like.  What do you think?
