<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" DEFAULT="FACE"><FONT SIZE="3" POINTSIZE="12" DEFAULT="SIZE">Dear colleagues,<BR>
once more<BR>
with some modifications suggested by Marta Medlinska, our facilitator, mainly:<BR>
-a website on Krakow and the suggestion to stay a day longer (or arrive a day earlier) to visit this remarkable city<BR>
-a reduction in the fee from 265 to 260 Euro since she found a cheaper copying place<BR>
Thanks Marta!!<BR>
If any of you others have suggestions on the invitation...it is a work-in-progress document.<BR>
Just toss the old one out and use this new one.<BR>
And in case you already sent the registration fee (deadline is June 14) I will reimburse the 5 Euro in Krakow.<BR>
Have a wonderful summer, spread the word.<BR>
Greetings from Berlin<BR>

<BR>
Dear colleagues,<BR>
please register now for the first international gathering on the<BR>
"InterActive Organization/open space-organization in Europe" taking<BR>
place Friday, September 3 and Saturday, September 4, 2004.<BR>
Since we announced these dates two months ago, ten new countries have<BR>
joined the European Union and 36 people expressed interest in<BR>
gathering on the topic of the InterActive Organization in Europe. <BR>
Meeting in Krakow, Poland with its old town and Viliczka Saltmine,<BR>
both on the list of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage, will give us<BR>
an<BR>
opportunity to explore the developments and challenges of the<BR>
InterActive Organization in the expanded Europe. <BR>
In addition, we will engage in the task of planning a longer and<BR>
larger gathering on the<BR>
issues and opportunities around the emerging InterActive<BR>
Organizations in Europe in the year 2005.<BR>
Since the tender loving care of the InterActive Organization needs a<BR>
sustained, long range effort, we consider the meeting this year,<BR>
followed by a second one in 2005 as the beginning of a longer<BR>
learning experience...probably a lifelong journey.<BR>
<BR>
