 ======================================================================

EuroTeX 2005 will be a special one: we celebrate the
2^{2^{2^{2^{2^{-\infty}}}}}
=  16th anniversary of  both Dante and  GUTenberg.  EuroTeX 2005 will take
place
Between Metz and Nancy in  the Premonstratension Abbey  of Pont-�-Mousson,
in  a
facility where we  can  all be  in  one place.  There   will be  talks  and
free
workshops    and   more  than  enough    opportunities  to   discuss   and
share
experiences. The conference is also  a great opportunity to  meet the people
who
make it happen.

The site of the conference is under construction at:
    http://www.gutenberg.eu.org/EuroTeX2005/

The theme of the conference will be:

    _Let's TeX Together!_

Possible topics include:
    * TeX, TeX extensions, tools
    * Macros and formats
    * Fonts: math fonts, opentype, etc.
    * Metapost, Metafont, Metafun, etc.
    * Typography and digital documents
    * Professional experiences with TeX

Tutorials  will be offered  during the first part of  the conference, from
March
7th at noon to Tuesday 8th evening.   Invited speakers and regular speakers
will
give talks during the second part from Wednesday 9th to  Friday 11th. People
are
invited to submit original papers on any of the topics listed above or any
other
topic related to the main theme of the conference. The topics list above is
by
no way exhaustive.

Paper  submissions, proposals for tutorials  and remarks relating to the
program
of  the   meeting  should  be  sent to   the  Program   Committee  mailing
list
(mailto:eurotex2005-program@gutenberg.eu.org) by September 1st,
2004. Important: because of the international audience, we expect
submissions in
English.

And  last   but not least  ...   because 16  is a special    number for
computer
scientists, we have good hope that the well known author of TeX, Donald E.
Knuth
be our special guest. We also hope to have Hermann Zapf, who has a special
place
in the TeX community as special guest.

We expect   users  and contributers  from   all over  the  world  to  attend
the
conference.  We are currently  working on the   program, so feel free to
submit
topics, suggestions.

The organization commitee hope that you will join us in Pont-�-Mousson.

   Prices
 ======================================================================

We do not have yet all the information regarding pricing, only an upper
limit of
what we will get. We are doing our possible to keep the price as low as
possible
while providing the best accomodation and food.

Currently, in order  to simplify registration handling, we  plan to offer
only 2
options   which will include accomodation,    meals, coffee breaks, gala
diner,
conference  fee   and materials.  There  will be   an  early-bird discount
offer
according to the calendar, so stay tuned.  Full registration information
will be
published on the conference web site soon.

Tutorials by themselves will be offered for free. The higher price will
cover
accomodation, meals and facility rental.

There will be a supplementary tour organized on Saturday 12th. We are still
discussing different options about it.

  Coming to the Conference
 ======================================================================

The closest international airport  is Luxembourg.  Usuallly,  it costs about
the
same to come to either Frankfurt, London or Paris than to come to Luxembourg
for
international flights.

By train, you can come to either Nancy or Metz and then  take a shuttle to
go to
Pont-�-Mousson.

By car, Pont-�-Mousson is located on E23/A31, half-way between Metz and
Nancy.

Detailed information will be published on the conference web site.
