VENUE
Hradec nad Moravicí, a town of 5000 inhabitants, is situated on the banks of
the Moravice river, eight kilometers south of Opava.  Set at the foot of 
the Nízký Jeseník mountains, in a wooded and hilly country, it offers 
picturesque scenery with magnificent views of the landscape.  The town is 
dominated by a large mansion---the former residence of dukes, rebuilt from 
the original royal castle, where you can find valuable collections and 
a superb adjoining park.  The conference will be held in the Belaria hotel 
in Hradec nad Moravicí.

CONFERENCE FEES
A: Basic conference fee           175 EUR
B: Czech and Slovak participants  5000 CZK
The registration fee covers the attendance to the scientific program, 
the proceedings, the accommodation, and all the meals at the conference.

REGISTRATION
Registration will be done electronically by filling a registration form 
available at the workshop web site no later than March 10, 2007.
