Hi Listers, Juri asked if there will be any presentations in english this year on the meeting of the IG-Phelsuma - I will answer (in addition to Magnus?), as I am among this year�s speakers:
Up to now we had too few foreign visitors (that are not able to understand german) to make a translation / synchronisation (like it is practiced at the "International Gecko Meeting" every year) worthwhile, but I am sure that we could and would do so - if enough guests announce themselves with the wish for an english-held lecture. And this would have to be planned in advance, as a double-language-presentation will take up more time than a single-language one ... so tell me / us if you really would like to come, if the program was at least partly held in english. If enough show interest, I can try to raise that topic this year - to make it possible for next year. Julie asked if this is an annual event - yes, usually it takes place on one of the last weekends in October, and up to now the town G�ttingen, which is located in northern Germany about an hours ride from Hannover, has been the meeting point of choice and will probably be next year�s, too. By the way - we are considering to translate at least the main part of our webpages into english, so that more people can partage in our members knowlegde - but this will take time. But you are welcome to raise Phelsuma-related discussions and questions in our message-bord in english at: http://www.ig-phelsuma.de/forum/index.html Hoping to see (maybe some of) you in G�ttingen - Hartmut PS: If you are interested in this year�s program, you can find it at: http://www.ig-phelsuma.de/aufruf/igptagung.htm ########################################################################### THE GLOBAL GECKO ASSOCIATION LISTSERV WebSite: www.gekkota.com Archive: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/ The GGA takes no responsibility for the contents of these postings. ###########################################################################
