Jos we could make a general poster to be used around here in Brazil. The ones that we used in SCALE (also the cube would be great) Like me ... I'm already invited for 6 different conferences... Surely poster will be useful. To print some and to be send to 3-4 ambassadors from different brazilian locations we would need around US$250. US$150 for posters and US$100-US$120 for Postal service. What do you think? Can we use part of this budget? Izabel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
