The following email was just sent to the RINGO listserv.  I am repeating here as well.  Please note as the email indicates – the website will be the main method of communication during SB58.

Dear all RINGOs – Potential SB 58 attendees,

Communication at the SBs – RINGO Website
We will be using the RINGO website as our primary communication tool at the SBs – so please continue reading to learn more! The page dedicated to SB 58 can be by clicking on the SB58 tab on the RINGO website.   The site will be updated during the SBs as we receive new information and opportunities – so remember to check it regularly.   You are able to subscribe to our blog on the website (see the right hand side of the page) – but as the note at the top of the SB 58 page indicates:

This page is the main repository of information for RINGOS for SB 58.  More details will be added here as they become available.  Last minute updates (ie meeting location change or new meeting added and occurring in the next few hours) will be posted here as well as posted as a new blog entry.  To subscribe to the blog entries so that you will receive an email with the new post, please see the information on the right hand panel.   Note – edits to this post will not generate an email – so please plan on checking this regularly.
