I would also be fine with Oxford in November, and thought Wolfson
worked just fine as a place to stay and to meet. It may be worth
noting that last year, because the EEBO-TCP conference and TEI Council
meeting were back to back, the TCP absorbed the cost of Paul's and my
airfare. I don't expect we'd be able to do that for the meeting this
fall, especially given that we'll be making the same trip in
September.

I'm free November 10-24, as well as pretty much all of October.
