Dear Elliott,
We as local organizers of the ISH 2003 meeting in Vienna are not
aware of
any "opposition to ISH's publicizing the occurrence of this
symposium"
whatsoever. We always agreed to publicize the symposium by means
of fliers
announcing it to meeting participants at the ISH registration
desk, as asked
to us by Dr. Hofer and Prof. Hubenstorf (registration starts
tomorrow at
3 pm). As of now, Tuesday July 15,1600 hours CET, we have
not received any
materials from the organizer(s) (in fact, we had not seen the
document
announcing the symposium program until we read your attachment),
but we
assume that the said fliers will be made available to us in time
for
distribution. If the organizer(s) also provide us with
posters (this
is the first time we see posters mentioned) we will gladly put
them up.
Although we cannot speak for Rob Skipper, the ISH webmaster, or
Roberta
Millstein, who manages the ISH listserv, we are sure that they
would have
been understanding and cooperative had they been requested to
announce
the symposium in due time. Given that the ISH meeting
starts tomorrow and
that most participants are now on their way, if they have not
already arrived
in Vienna, it seems pointless to make an email announcement to
all
participants at this late time still. What we can do
is see to it that
ISH meeting participants registering tomorrow before 8 pm (when
the
symposium starts) are duly informed. In fact, since we now
possess the
official program of the symposium, we will multiply it ourselves
if
the organizer(s) do not deliver their materials in time.
Werner Callebaut and Astrid Juette
Local Arrangements, ISH 2003
P.S. to Roberta: Roberta, if you are still there, please
announce this
on the listserv.

[Moderator's note: I will confirm that I did not receive
information about the symposium until the Sunday before the
conference, when I was out of town. -RLM]
