NADWAS used to be the affiliated North American branch of DWAS (Doctor
Who Appreciation Society) in UK.  the DWAS is the only fan society
recognized by the BBC.  This past October, the DWAS broke relations
with NADWAS, for reasons that were not (yet) published.

PS. Panopticon is THE British Dr. Who convention.  It had to be cancelled
this year.  Why?  Apparently, the actors had binding contracts with
Spirit of Lite, and when they designated a weekend for their Chicago
convention, Panopticon (Who had designated their time earlier than
SoL did) had to be cancelled.
