I think that's what it says R ----Original message---- Date : 06/04/2016 - 23:56 (GMTDT) To : cctalk at classiccmp.org Subject : VCF Europe, April 30th - May 1st, Munich + registration for VCF Berlin Hi list, the 17th edition of VCF Europe[0] is coming soon! It will take place on April 30th and May 1st in Munich, Germany. Please be aware that the information on the English version of the website might be outdated or less detailed than on the German page, but Google Translate will help. Also the registration for VCF Berlin[1] in October is open now. We are looking for speakers, workshop instructors and exhibitors, both for the regular exhibition and this year's special exhibition on computers and languages. It will be open for visitors on Sunday, 2nd and Monday, 3rd of October, as the 3rd October is a public holiday in Germany, but we are thinking about inviting people to build up on Friday already and using Saturday, 1st of October as a day just for the participants and the community. This way there would be more time to talk and see the other exhibitions. Maybe we could even offer advanced workshops on Saturday. Come and visit us! Ping me if you need a place to stay.
