Hi all, In case you have not read through the announcement text I wanted to draw your attention to the tutorial day (Saturday, 26th March 2011) that is attached to the workshop. The tutorials are open for everyone BUT there are two constraints: 1) We have to limit the number of participants (because of the size of the available room) 2) You need to put your name on a list. Deadline is 11th February 2011. The registration page is: http://www.doodle.com/xarbbx7b4cah9wfn Hence, if you are not quick enough you may not be able to attend the workshop. More information about the tutorial, including a preliminary agenda, can be found at: http://www.iab.org/about/workshops/smartobjects/tutorial.html Ciao Hannes PS: We are still looking for sponsors. It would be nice to offer coffee & refreshments during the day to the participants, for example.
