Hi folks,
Just received this news of the next TCC. Quick history, the last TCC was VIII in Portland in 2008; in 2009 the conference was awarded to an organization in Brussels, but the contract fell through. There will be a WCN organizational planning meeting in Prague this November -- at a beautiful retreat location that comes highly recommended, if you have the itch to travel. The York conference is being organized by Randy Ghent, who has had a hand in organizing most of the past conferences, so this should be a solid one. Keep your eyes on the WCN website for the date.
Time to start looking for funding to fly to England next year...
Best,
Elly
