Hi,
Fantastic Idea - the more conferences the better as they propogate ideas better than even publications do - the recent ASCS conference (Australasian Society for Classical Studies) at Hobart in Tasmania had more than 120 20 minute papers presented in 4 parallel sessions - there is nothing better to confirm collegiality and camaraderie in our studies.
I would fully support it and even try to get a travel grant to go from Australia - and probably present a paper on Frontinus, Polyaenus or the representation of Roman forts (which is what I should be working on!)
Great Idea
Cheers
Murray
