Dear Squeaklanders,
Greetings! We're about to "go live" with online registration for SqueakFest '05. I'll send another announcement when the online registration is launched (via the Squeakland.org homepage) in the next day or so.
In the meantime, we do have the information on conference registration fees; I know many of you have been waiting for this info, so here it is:
August 10th - Hands On Workshops will be offered for people with no experience to much experience (with the Squeak Etoy interface) Day only fee $50.00 - includes continental breakfast and lunch.
August 11 - 13 General Conference sessions including plenary keynote by Alan Kay, August 11th $100.00
Workshop Day & Full Conference: $130.00 (includes continental breakfast each morning and lunch Wed, Thurs, and Friday).
We will attempt to do everything possible (raise enough funds, have enough participants) so that presenters and panelists will have their registration fees waived.
I've attached a flyer to this email containing the particulars. *Please* email the flyer to friends, colleagues and associates who you think may be interested. Please feel free to print and distribute at other conferences, workshops, your school, etc., etc.
Another announcement will follow as soon as we've launched the online registration information.
We look forward to seeing you in Chicago! Kim
