TISLR 8?

[Trude Schermer]

Dear Josep,
I'm also very happy with your offer. As you know we have organised the
last TISLR conference here in Amsterdam and we have asked several people
and groups since then to organise the next conference. However so far
without any succes. 
Either the beginning of the summer (and of June, beginning of July) or
the end of August would be fine for us us. If you need any assistance
don't hesitate to contact the Dutch group in Amsterdam (Anne, Beppie,
Roland or me). We will support you in any way we can. 
I think Barcelona is a great place to hold the next TISL conference.

Happy new year to everyone,

Trude

I agree with James!
Its really nice to have someone interested in hosting TISLR 8...
Summer would be the best time to attend a conference and squeeze in a
vacation on
the side.
Perhaps late August or early September when its cooled off a bit and
prices
have
dropped. (Just one poor grad students opinion....)

Happy New Year everyone!
