The following Proposed Symposium is no longer applicable. WLP's proposal was rejected by AILA.
For the time being the information below will be left in place so that those who were interested can see what was proposed.
The Proposed Symposium The WLP (World Language Process) is proposing a symposium for: August 23-28 Beijing, China. We have met personally with the AILA and China organization chairs, Profs. Wen and Duan, besides others, and explained our hopes for this symposium. We were asked to file the proposal in the standard procedure and we have done so. The decision date for the Conference to announce acceptance is in October 2010. The proposed symposium title is: (Towards A Universal Auxiliary Language) The proposed symposium would be in two parts, or even as two separate symposiums if the Conference planners are agreeable. The introductory presentations are as follows: Part B: The Process for Selecting A Universal Auxiliary Script.
Much to our chagrin the above Power Point presentations will not work on some browsers due to the unwisdom of Microsoft in optimizing for their browser rather than making it conform to a universal and open standard. Should you not have a browser that will open them for you, FireFox (and hopefully other browsers) can open the files in the following .pdf format.] Part B: The Process for Selecting A Universal Auxiliary Script.
The symposium is being structured into several sections with coordinators of each section as follows: Section Presenters
In 2008 Bruce Beach was moderator of several presentations at the AILA Conference in Germany and was also a presenter at a symposium there for the World Language Process.
