One issue to consider (and I'll be pursuing just to get their response) is reciprocal membership rights for conferences. We introduced it off our own bat at FLEAT III, but I don't recall if it was ever formalized. I note that CALICO members have reciprocal rights with EuroCALL. There are two European groups that cover what IALL does, EuroCALL and CercleS. The latter is an organization of directors of Language Centers all over Europe. They sent two or three people to IALL last year.

Another possibility might be through the journals. We (IALL) have published one Euro-article since FLEAT. Their journal, ReCALL, is now fully refereed, with a very prestigious publisher (Cambridge UP). I'm on the Board of that, so will be happy to bring up any ideas you may generate.
