IR 3.0: Net / Work / Theory International Conference of the AoIR MECC conference & exhibition center Maastricht (NL) 13 October pre-conference workshops 14-16 October 2002 Dear Colleagues, As many of you know, I am in charge of the coordination of the AoIR international conference 2002. I have some news about the program and the registrations. This year we have introduced an innovation in the online program: for each presentation/title there will be a direct link to the relative abstract. Full papers will be available starting October 1st to AoIR members. We are working on it (thanks Gits and Klaus!), and an updated version of the program will be available in the next days. Have you already registered to the conference? - If you are among the 200 people who already did it: Thank you ! - If not, hurry up! Until august 31st you can benefit from early registration fees! You will save money and your early registration will help the organization a lot! You can register and find more information at http://www.aoir.org/2002 As the conference is approaching (less than 2 months), I will send you further important news in the next weeks. As usual, if you need more information, do not hesitate to contact me. I am looking forward to meeting you all in Maastricht!
