Dear list-users, I would like to draw your attention to the mail I received from the organizers of the BachoTeX-EuroTeX.
Kind regards Willi Egger Secretary NTG Begin forwarded message: > From: Jerzy Ludwichowski <jerzy.ludwichow...@uni.torun.pl> > Date: 17 January 2011 21:44:56 CET > To: LUG boards <lug-boa...@ifi.uio.no> > Subject: EuroBachoTeX 2011 -- Call for papers > Reply-To: lug-boa...@ifi.uio.no > > Dear Friends, please forward this to your membership. > > Best regards, > > JBL > > EuroBachoTeX 2011: CALL FOR PAPERS > ================================== > > AESTHETICS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE MESSAGE, CULTURAL CONTEXTS > > The BachoTeX conference in 2011, the XIXth of the series, will be held > from April 29th through May 3rd 2011. It will also be the official > EuroTeX conference, hence we will reference it by the traditional name > EuroBachoTeX with the distinguishing ``2011''. BachoTeX conferences have > been organized yearly since 1993 by GUST, the Polish TeX Users Group. > Please visit the main site of the conference: > http://www.gust.org.pl/bachotex/2011 . > > As the lead theme we propose the aesthetics of publications from the > perspective of the effectiveness of the message. Encouraged are also > references to the cultural contexts -- not everything is liked by > everyone everywhere. > > We look forward to TeX, METAPOST, ConTeXt, LaTeX, and friends related > presentations revolving around those issues, but will be more than > happy if programmers and designers of typographic systems, > typographers and other users of such systems want to share their > thoughts and experience. > > In addition, we look forward to papers on support that typography > systems can offer to the disabled, e.g., in connection with sign > languages or generating speech (e.g., from TeX's mathematical > notation). Perhaps somebody looked into issues with non-alphabetic > notations such as tablature. > > Also, please note the ``Call for TeX Pearls'' below. > > WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS > > Especially welcome are proposals for TeX-related tutorials or > introductions. If you have suggestions for tutorials or workshops > by others than yourself or about specific topics, please let us know. > > POSTER SESSIONS > > All participants will be given the opportunity to present their TeX > and typographic results in the form of posters. We will provide > exhibition space. Perhaps new ideas or solutions will emerge? > > CALL FOR TeX PEARLS > > We are continuing the tradition of ``The Pearls of TeX Programming''. > Here is, briefly, what is wanted: > > * short TeX, METAFONT or METAPOST macro(s), not necessarily useful, > > * the solution not obvious at the first glance, > > * easy to explain: necessarily 10 minutes at most. > > If you have something that fits the bill, please consider submitting > a proposal. If you know of somebody's work that does the same, please > let us know, and we will contact that person. > The email address is: pearls at gust dot org dot pl. > Previously collected pearls can be found at > http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/pearls. > > THE TeX CLINIC > > We hope that more advanced TeX ies will help out the TeX Clinic team > led by Joanna Ryćko (http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/klinika). > > DEADLINES AND ADDRESSES > > The deadline for abstracts and other proposals is March 28th 2011. > The deadline for final papers to appear in the conference materials > is April 11th. > > Contributions should be sent by email to the Programme Committee: > prog-ebt2011 at gust dot org dot pl.
