Our current plan is to hold the event in June 2019 in Boston. Andrew Plotkin has the (scant!) details in his latest blog entry: http://blog.iftechfoundation.org/2018-03-27-planning-a-new-convention-for-2019.html and we've started a second mailing list for people who wish to stay updated on the conference. Sign up here: http://iftechfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/con-info Our new IFComp organizer, Jacqueline Ashwell, has written a blog post introducing herself and laying out some priorities for this year. See her post to find out how to share feedback or ideas on the next competition. http://blog.iftechfoundation.org/2018-03-07-greetings-from-ifcomps-new-organizer.html We also have an update from Jason McIntosh on our accessibility testing project. The committee is planning to form working groups that will each create small accessibility-test games, starting with the Inform, Twine, and Choicescript engines. He details the plan in his latest entry: http://blog.iftechfoundation.org/2018-04-01-accessibility-testing-update-spring-2018.html Thank you for your support. Please let us know if you have any feedback, questions, or comments. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
