... yes, it also applies to the Berlin-Meeting, and I take
the opportunity to remember all of you that the deadline for
proposals for the meeting is March 1st 2004. Please sent
your abstracts to [email protected] or to
[email protected].

Aside: I also like to mention that the exhibition of the Museum of
Modern Art, New York is just next door to the confernece venue.
However the exhibition is closed on Monday. If you plan to connect a
visit of the exhibition and the Users Group Meeting you need one
more day -- and probably some patience while queueing up.
