Scheduling and securing the participation of more than 260 presenters is a time-consuming process, which has therefore not been fully completed yet. Program chair Brian Loader is currently away on a much deserved holiday, but we expect the program to be online ultimo August after confirmation of the last presenters. Meanwhile, we will shortly update the program page with more general information about the schedule. This includes examples of some of the many interesting presentations, you can experience at the conference - so don't forget to check in on http://conferences.aoir.org/program.htm on a regular basis! greetings Lisbeth Klastrup your friendly neighbourhood conference chair Internet Research 9.0: Rethinking Community, Rethinking Place
