[Themaintainers] SIGCIS CFP on "Infrastructure" (aka Maintenance)

[Lee Vinsel]

Dear Maintainers,

(Apologies if you already got this in a separate email from me.)

I wanted you to know that the largest special interest group in SHOT,
SIGCIS, has put out a call for papers on the theme of "Infrastructure." The
papers will be presented on the Sunday of the SHOT meeting in Albuquerque.
This is, in part, an attempt to get the Maintainers discussion going, even
in the face of our panels not being accepted. (Andy Russell, who came up
with the maintainers parody title of Isaacson's Innovators book, is the
head of SIGCIS.)

For those of you who don't know much about SHOT, it contains a number of
special interest groups, in which individuals focus on a theme (engineering
history, women in the history of technology, etc.). SIGCIS is dedicated to
the history of computing, digital technologies, and the like. So, if your
Maintainers paper was even remotely connected to the history of computing,
it might make a good candidate for SIGCIS's Infrastructure themed panels.

Best,

Lee
