Janelle,

Dates for Intergeo in Germany.  Our proposed dates don't conflict, but
just a reminder for the record.  We promised not to conflict, and there
may be opportunities to find new sponsors there.

Regards,
Tim Bowden

Hey,

sorry, there is a mistake:

Intergeo runs from 22nd to 24th SEPTEMBER in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Best regards,

Torsten
