[size=150:25rlfxjb]As you can see we have two open sections, where additional lectures would be very welcome![/size]
Organization. I need to know the following things from all participants and guests:
1. Do you need any equipment / gadgets for your lecture? (Beamer, Overhead etc.)
2. Where do you want to stay ( which hotel )
3. When do you arrive, when do you intend to leave?
3. Are you allergic to something? Do you need any medical attendance?
4. Will you come a) definitely b) probably c) perhaps
5. Do you have any proposals or ideas concerning the schedule, do you want to have something changed?
As in the hotel thread only four people voted, it does not make sense to book something, also because I have no definite promises for who will come and who perhaps not. So i suggest everyone goes to the hotel that suits her / him. Book over the Internet and the site in the Hotel thread, it should be much cheaper.
The costs for the conference will depend on the amount of participants, but should be less than 20 € including the visit to the Museum, I suppose.
Food not included, of course. I can get you to the good restaurants, but I cannot anticipate what you guys want to eat.
