The time  is running rather fast:  the count down for  the EuroTeX 92
Conference has  already started. As most  of you probably know  it is
organized by  the Czechoslovak TeX Users  Group in collaboration with
Charles University and the  Czech Technical University, Prague, under
the auspices of  both Rectors. EuroTeX 92 is  supported by French TeX
Users Group  GUTenberg and by German  TeX Users Group DANTE  e.V. The
support  helps  to  bring  representatives  of  existing  or emerging
national  TUGs from  C&EE Countries  to Prague,  where the Conference
takes place

     ******* from September 14 to September 18, 1992.*******

We  will forward  also the  hard copy  of this  third (and  the last)
announcement  to all  who already  sent us  the registration form and
paid the fee  and also to those who  forgot all about it but  we hope
they will  come. We would greatly  appreciate if they kindly  use the
SWIFT to  transfer money to the  Conference account (since it  is the
fastest form of payment). Those who sent us their e-mail address only
cannot  be reached  by surface  mail. We  present the  update of  the
programme below. It differs but not  too much from the one we already
provided  to some  of you  -- *it  was available  in electronic  form
only*.


                     EuroTeX '92 final program
                    (both technical and social)

(Explanation: Invited  talks are marked with  stars (**). Single star
(*) marks tutorials and BoF, in parallel sessions. Lectures will take
place at the Czech Technical University of Prague (Czech abbreviation
CVUT)  at "Technicka"  Street No  2-4 close  to the  terminus of  the
underground line C ("Dejvicka"). Bus transfers from Kajetanka will be
provided. Note  that this is  definitive programme. You  will be kept
informed about changes  if any during the Conference  through a daily

**********************************************************************
The latecomers  who will pay after  September 8 will be  asked to pay
350 DM for the package (see below or ask for previous announcements).
Note that in  such a case an earlier arrival  on Sunday, September 13
is not possible. No single rooms is available any more.

Phone numbers, e-mail:
You will be accessible by phone  at Kajetanka. The area code is +422.
The phone number is 316 72 12, or 35  47 50 to 59, or 35 25 50 to 59.
The operator will  put your call through to your  room provided he is
told that  you are a  participant of EuroTeX  (and your name  will be
carefully pronounced). From Kajetanka  only local calls are possible.
There  is no  FAX available  at the  Residence. Connection via e-mail
will be  available at a  special computer room  close to the  lecture
hall.  For the  time being  we cannot  promise an  access to  FTP and
Telnet. Disks  for archiving should  be DOS formated,  3,5". Also for
copying  public domain  software 3,5"  disks are  strongly recomended
(5,25" drive is not easily available).



Kajetanka -- how to get there ?
Here is  a short description  how to use  public transport system  on
your arrival  to Prague. First you  should buy some tickets  (4,- Kcs
(Czechoslovak Crowns)  each -- there  are some automatic  machines at
the underground stations (orange colour)  or you can use tobacconists
or  the  reception  desks  of  Prague  hotels  to  get them). You are
supposed to stamp one ticket per one  use of bus, or tram. Within the
underground system (Metro -- the stations  are marked by "M") you can
change fro one line to another A,B,C  and the ticket is valid for one
hour.

Public transport is  relatively cheap, but when going  by taxi, it is
better to  agree on the fare  beforehand, since prices are  not fixed
and actually depend on drivers (prices  on taxi-meters are in Kcs and
they should be indicated on the  car right door; they vary from about
6 to 10 Kcs  per kilometer). The shortest way  from the terminuses to
Kajetanka Student Residence is as follows:

1. Railway.  From the main  railway station ("Hlavni  nadrazi"), take
the  underground line  C (in  the direction  "Haje") up  to the  next
station ("Muzeum"). At this station change for underground line A (in
the direction "Dejvicka") and get off at the station "Hradcanska". At
the exit  of the station follow  the sign "BUS" (number  108 or 174).
Take  a  bus  (*number  108  or  174*)  which  goes  to  the  station
"Kajetanka" located just in front of the Kajetanka Residence.
Other railway stations:
>From  "Praha -  Holesovice" station  use the  underground line  C and
change at "Muzeum" station for  line A (in the direction "Dejvicka").
Continue as in the previous case.
>From "Praha  - Masaryk station"  (old name: "Praha  - Stred" station)
use underground  line B in  the direction "Nove  Butovice". Change at
station "Mustek"  for line A (in  the direction "Dejvicka"). Continue
as in the  previous cases. Maps of the  Prague underground system are
displayed at all its stations and in all carriages of the underground
trains.

2.  Flight. From  the airport  take  bus  number 119  to the  station
"Dejvicka"; this is  the terminus of the underground  line A as well.
Change and  take underground to  the next station  ("Hradcanska") and
then use the bus as described above.

3.  Car. Roads  are relatively  good but  with only  a few  motorways
(speed  limits: 110  km/h on  motorways, 90  on roads,  60 in towns).
Parking in Prague is generally difficult. There are places to park in
the neighbourhood of  the Residence, but not a  (guarded) parking. If
you arrive  by car along  E 50,  try  to get to  the crossroad called
"Vypich" (this name is used on maps, too) located on the west side of
Prague on E 48. (Short description: leave the motorway at its end and
follow the road via flyover  to the centre (sign: "Centrum") downhill
for about 1  km; cross another flyover (do not  leave the road to the
right !!!)  over another road  and follow the  road up to  the top of
a hill (there is a big hospital on your right) to the traffic lights;
you are at  "Vypich", where you should turn to  the right.) From this
crossroad, follow the drive straight down to the centre of Prague (to
the  east). After  about 2  km (you  will be  at "Patockova"  street,
former  name "Pionyru",  which is  still sometimes  used) you will be
close to Kajetanka Residence (it is the only one high building on the
left  side  of  the  road).  We  hope  that  the  small  partial  map
(unfortunately too small)  will help you. If you come  along E 55 try
to follow the  direction to Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad)  and you will get
to the  required E 48.  Do not cross  the Vltava river.  Any road map
should suffice to  find the way. In the  case the Kajetanka Residence
will be on your right. *An (important) note*: a lot of names has been
changed after 1989 and even relatively new maps could be wrong as for
names !

Performances:
We  tried to  reserve tickets  for the  Black Theatre ("Panoptikum ta
Fantastika" Theatre, 15.9. at  20.30, performance "Aspects of Alice",
14  DM  or  250  Crowns  )  and  for  Laterna  Magica ("The Palace of
Culture",  17.9.  at  20.00,  performance  "Odysseus",  24  DM or 430
Crowns): they will be available  during the Registration, but we have
only a  limited number of tickets.  Those who intend to  visit one or
both performances  are asked to  send an e-mail.  Programmes of other
theatres will be available also during the Registration.

What will be covered by the package fee (without extras):
a season ticket for buses, trams (streetcars) and for the underground
from the first day after your arrival (from September, 14 or 15, till
the end of your stay in Prague), sightseeing tour on Monday afternoon
(provided you ordered it), welcome party, halfpension for Sept. 15 --
18 (breakfast at Kajetanka Residence,  lunch at the conference site),
organ  concert,  refreshment  during  breaks,  materials with general
information  and daily  bulletin, Proceedings  of EuroTeX  92 (rather
*interesting* book, 320 pp.) is covered by paying the "package".

Note  that  during  the  Conference  the  additional  copies  of  the
Proceedings of EuroTeX 92 will be  available in the limited number of
copies for  the *special* price  of 30 DM.  If you are  interested in
ordering the  Proceedings without comming to  EuroTeX, please contact
*after the conference* <jvesely@cspguk11.bitnet>, or write to

     Ceskoslovenske sdruzeni uzivatelu TeXu (CSTUG)
     Matematicky ustav UK
     Sokolovska 83
     CS-186 00 Praha
     Czechoslovakia

We are going to cooperate in  the spreading of Proceedings with other
local TUGs.

Payment:
Those  who has  not pay  untill now  are requested  to send money via
SWIFT (!) to the following account

           34735-021/0100 at KOMERCNI BANKA, PRAHA MESTO

The address of the bank is

   KOMERCNI  BANKA, pob.  Praha --  MESTO,
   Vaclavske  nam. 42
   110 00 PRAHA 1
   Czechoslovakia

while the name of the account is

   Ceskoslovenske sdruzeni uzivatelu TEXu

Cancellation:
In case of cancellation (please,  do it only if absolutely necessary,
you would miss a lot of fun !) we will refund you the amount you paid
minus a  sum which regrettably  has to be  deducted: for cancellation
done till  September 10 it will  be 10 \% of  the payment; after this
date it will be 120 DM (Proceedings will be sent to you).

Climate:
Since  much  of  Prague   fascination  (besides  the  Conference)  is
historical, architectural and cultural, it can be enjoyed at any time
of  the year.  The average  maximum temperature  in September is 18^o
C (64^o F) and the weather is relatively stable (except this year !).

Currency:
The Czechoslovak Crown (Kcs) is rated now approx. 18:1 to DM, approx.
28:1  to  USD.  Recently,  prices  have  slightly increased. They are
slowly   approaching  "western   standards"  but   in  many  respects
Czechoslovakia is  considered to be favourable  and cheap for western
tourists.

We wish  you pleasant journey  to Prague. We  hope you will  find the
Conference exciting and meet stimulating for your further work.
