Is it possible to contact an Event Speaker

Post by brianmartin_2001 »

Hi , I was wondering if it's possible to contact a Guest speaker on any of Abug event videos
that are on Youtube. I've been watching them avidly and have a question or two I'd like to address
to one of the presenters, preferably through private email. Acquiring contact details is obviously
the sensitive bit.

Is this possible at all?

Thanks in advance

Most of the ABUG guest speakers are active on the forums. Your best bet would be to post their names on here and invite them to contact you.

You're well above the post minimum so you should have access to private-message -- so you could invite them to private-message you, then either have your conversation there, or exchange email addresses.
Questions about software preservation (BBC, RISC OS or other platforms)? Please feel free to ask.
Currently looking for RISC OS software to archive and preserve, please drop me a PM if you have any to offer.

Hi , I have already tried looking around but not had much luck.
The speaker I am trying to contact I don't think is very active on here, if at all,
(although with people using various handles I could be wrong)

Mel Pullen (Soft Machinery)

I am trying to acquire documentation on some software he may have been involved with.
That is essentially what my question is around.

many thanks

I can drop Mel an email and pass on your email address if you wish?
