Dear source transformation people,
we are considering the option of arranging a Source Transformation Systems Workshop next year (2005), but we need a "hands-up" count, to see if the interest of another one this soon is there.
GPCE'05 is in Tallin, Estonia, 29.9.-1.10.2005, and the workshop would be on 27.9.05 and/or on 28.9.05, see http://www.program-transformation.org/Gpce05/ for the general GPCE05 information. Unfortunately these dates are very close to SCAM 2005, http://www.dcs.kcl.ac.uk/staff/mark/scam2005/ which is in Budapest, Hungary, 30.9.-1.10.05. as part of ICSM2005 (25.-30.9.2005). There are plenty of connections from Tallin to Hungary (not necessarily direct), so it is possible to participate in both a STS05 and SCAM05, but you will miss out on the main conferences if you do that.
So please reply directly to me or to stsw04@ii.uib.no with an answer to the following questions:
- Will you want to attend a STS05 as part og GPCE05 in Tallin?
- Do you think the STS04 format should be repeated (short position papers and discussion sessions for a full day)?
- Should we rather have full papers (rather than position papers)? If so, in the form of many short presentations or a few long ones?
- Would you like the addition of 1-3 special themes sessions (up to 1/2 day each) focusing on one of the many research questions? In this case, what themes do you see as most important?
Please add comments and suggestions along with your other answers. The sooner you respond, the easier it will be to deside about STS05.
Have a nice Christmas and a happy new year, Magne
