[pkg-bioc] Fwd: [NETTAB] Preliminar Scientific Programme, Early registration deadline

Wed May 16 11:34:21 UTC 2007

Hello,

pkg-bioc (and CRAN, BioConductor and Debian with it) will be presented on the 
NETTAB conference next month. It would be lovely to meet some of you 
there ... be it to exchange keys or to talk more science than on the 
Debian-Science mailing list :-)

Best regards

Steffen

Registration is open at the workshop's web site.
See http://www.nettab.org/2007/rform.html .

EARLY REGISTRATION FEES ONLY APPLY UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY, MAY 18, 2007.

Please register as soon as possible in order to 
help the organization of the event.

Please remind as well that the organization won't 
book hotel's rooms for participants. If you are 
interested in a support for the booking,
consider asking to Michele Viaggi Sas travel 
agency. They are supporting the organization of 
the workshop and have granted their
logistic support to all participants.

Finally, please consider that the workshop will 
be held immediately before the main events of the 
'Giugno Pisano' (see the workshop's site for further information).
As a consequence, it would be wise to book 
hotels' rooms well in advance, as soon as possible anyway.

3. Help us spread the word

The NETTAB 2007 workshop will be announced to 
many mailing lists devoted both to the 
bioinformatics and the semantic web researchers.
The announcement will also be posted to some directories of events.

We are always looking for new channels for announcing the workshop.
Help us by pointing out mailing lists and web 
sites or by submitting a short note to your colleagues.

A presentation of the Workshop is available upon 
request for free redistribution and hanging up in bulletin boards.
Please ask the Secretariat by email at info at nettab.org .

Thank you in advance.

+++++
