Excellent news! not sure I can make it, but... be sure to check out the Rock Festival held near Mt Fuji at the end of September... It's smaller that Fuji Rock Festival but the same management.

We haven't settled all the details yet, but we have at least lined up management support and got commitments to go ahead, so we can let you know. The SVG Open 2007 Conference will be held in Tokyo Japan, co-hosted by Opera Software and W3C Keio. We are planning for a date sometime in september, but until Keio's university scheduling process is complete, which should be in february, we cannot finally confirm an exact date. (We are hoping for 12-14 September) In due course we will be updating the website, putting out a call for papers, and so forth. We are interested in full papers, posters, and perhaps lightning talks and late-breaking news (which obviously can wait until later for submission :) ). Further details will be coming here too, when we have a bit more of a proper shape. In the meantime, start planning to be in Japan in September - practice with those chopsticks, get out the language tapes and make some cool demo fonts using japanese characters, think about vertical text layout, and get the budget in shape. We look forward to seeing you in Tokyo. for the organisers at W3C and Opera, Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile, Opera Software: Standards Group hablo español - je parle français - jeg lærer norsk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Try Opera 9 now! http://opera.com ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
