Thank you, Dominique! It was a very successful Powwow! Nice place, nice people...

It is very hard to find a topic that 51 people are interested. However, free networking gives us more opportunities to know more colleagues.

Hi everyone!
First of all, thank you, Dominique, for organizing this powwow! It was great to see the faces behind the names. I definitely picked up some interesting ideas too. Unfortunately, I did not get to talk to everyone, so I really hope we can get together again soon. Did anyone take any pictures? I had brought my camera but then totally forgot about it. It would be great to get copies of the pictures!
Hope to see you all soon!
Bea

Post title: Dear Dominique

last time I said I was supposed to have a surgery. it is actually cancelled temporarilly. but I still get a urgent task to assistant an expo manegement or something this afternoon(still waiting for the detailed order). so surely I will go to this powwow if I don't have to go to the expo, and please excuse me if I have to. as for the fee, if my absence bring any budget shortage. i think you can give me an account to sent my due charge even though i may not be able to attend. thanks for you arrangement of this event

Dominique,

Is there a program schedule available?

I'll try a live broadcast on site via BlogTV depending on the Internet connection/speed available.

A report may be prepared later based on recordings/photos/videos I'll be making.

Other colleagues are welcome to take photos/videos too.

Besides laying emphasis on "tips to newcomers" I would like to abuse this meeting to gather some advices and contacts for learning Chinese. If any of you happen to know somebody who might be inclined to give private lessons or if any of you might be interested in doing that yourself please let me know.
Looking forward to meeting you,
