Dear friends,
The BachoTeX 2008 Program Committee dares to remind you of the quickly
upcoming deadline for submitting paper proposals for the BachoTeX 2008
conference. The Call for Papers and TeX Pearls can be found
http://www.gust.org.pl/BachoTeX/2008/cfp1en.
We trust that the main theme of the conference, ,,TeX contra TeX''
should be of a great interest to the community at large and the
various developers in particular.
You may have noted that the supplementing theme "Aesthetic aspects
of typesetting" is also addressed to those who use other typesetting
software. If you know people active in this area please talk them
into presenting a paper.
Your children or very young TeXies in your vicinity are invited to
contribute in the yet another conference supplementing theme "What
is TeX to me?"
Based on suggestions and experiences from previous years, one day of
the conference will be devoted solely to working meetings of the
various informal interest groups (no presentations):
- fonts,
- TeX engines,
- distributions,
- supporting software,
- typesetting software in general,
- propagating TeX,
- history of TeX
-- you name it. Talk your common interest buddies into coming and/or
propose a paper.
Do not forget submitting your "TeX Pearls" aka "TeX beauties and
oddities"!
And, finally -- registration is open at
http://www.gust.org.pl/BachoTeX/2008/registration-en. Please note
that early registration ending March 31 allows for a significant
saving in the conference fee.
Come and celebrate the XVIth, or $10000_{2}$ or $100_{4}$ or
$20_{8}$ or $10_{16}$ BachoTeX!
