Abstract
The three contacted the organizers of MCI and had discussions with them about what they thought of the idea, and the best way to proceed: we didn't want SIGCHI to take over or compete with MCI. The discussions led to the conclusion that SIGCHI and MCI largely addressed different groups in the Netherlands, and the best option was to join forces by merging. (In the event that turned out to be the case: there was relatively little overlap between people who were involved in MCI and people who were involved with SIGCHI.)
