If all goes well, I'll be at the first Hugoye Syriac Symposium tomorrow for most of the afternoon. Look out for the guy in a dark brown corduroy vest with watch fobs and a tweed cap. :-)
If something further goes crazy with the family and I cannot attend at the last minute, I'll be logged into the online attendance system all day and on Meebo (widget's on the left) to chat.
Back a number of years ago, I coded the alpha and early beta for the eBethArké Syriac Digital Library Project, which was a hell of a lot of fun. I can only say that I'll be ecstatic to see the brick-and-mortar Beth Mardutho Research Library first-hand.
Peace,
