Dear Davor,

All I can say is that I don't have any further information. Some of the
questions you raise were already asked several months ago, but I haven't
heard anything since.

Personally, I think I'm going to bring transparencies. An overhead
projector is the least you can expect, I would guess. I may also prepare a
PP presentation, but it's always wise to have a backup plan (even if a
computer and beamer are present!)

> 4. Will the presentations be published somewhere after the Mondial?

It was mentioned in one of the newsletters that a special issue of the
Revue Jules Verne would be dedicated to the conference. The CIJV site is
down for maintenance at the moment, so I can't check the exact wording...

I think this is supposed to be part of the main session of the conference.
While I don't know the agenda, it's certain that the various societies
will present themselves.

I'd expect the CIJV to arrange that.

Good question. As an alternative, Terry Harpold suggested that the JVF
members who intend to give a presentation post the title and an abstract
of their talk to the forum.

Cheers,
Garmt.
