Hi there,
thought this would be of interest, both to those inside and outside of
Japan. Note the special panel discussion after the presentations. Sorry as
usual for the short notice, Pricey if you are not a member, but hope to see
some keita-l'ers there. Should be an unusually large MCF membership turnout
as well.
Apologies for any cross posting...
