Hi Robert, Sukender, Serge @Robert, Sukender: Actually Sukender meets also my expectations what I was thinking about the mini-conference. Giving courses does sounds also cool, but I am not sure if we will have people who are willing to give them. As for us, specially for me, I do not have experience in giving commercial courses and I am not sure if my knowledge will cover with attendies' money and expectations ;) The one thing, I could show is maybe a "Build your GPGPU solver with OpenSceneGraph".
Of course if we could come up with couple of small courses/lectures, why not. They could even be of commercial nature, but maybe Paul and Bob could provide us with more info about this. I am also not sure if a university will be glad to have any commercial thing goes on on their campus. Even if you ask them, that you pay for the lecture hall, I do not think, that they would do this. However, I could try to find out which universities or other institues in Paris do have a graphics lab and could ask them to host our (mini)conference. As I wrote in the very first post, I hope that we do not have to justify the money we spent for that, because I hope on enough donations ;) I suppose I am very naive, however I hope that the costs wouldn't be that big if we could find a free hoster (uni or maybe tharsis again), so that we should be able to cover them with small amount of donations. @Serge Yes it is not on the same place as before and slightly away from the center :( However there is a subway station in the near and maybe it isn't that bad. Serge, and what about all the hosting capabilities in your company? Do you have beamer, fast internet and a room with enough seats to host the meeting/conference there?
