[Radiance-general] Radiance 2006 Workshop -- September update

[John Mardaljevic]

Radiance 2006 Scientific Workshop
13-14 (Wed-Thu) September, Queens Building, De Montfort University,  
Leicester, UK.
http://www.iesd.dmu.ac.uk/~jm/radiance2006work.html

In addition to all the great presentations that we come to expect at  
the annual Radiance Scientific Workshop, we hope to have a BrightSide  
DR37-P HDR viewer on show (courtesy of Alan Chalmers and co.).  Find  
out more about the display here:

A not to be missed opportunity!  A few places are still available.   
Contact Margaret Barton to arrange booking:
MBarton at dmu.ac.uk
She will e-mail you the booking form etc.

The programme is very nearly finalised -- a listing is given below.   
There may be space to sneak in another one or two presentations --  
contact me (John Mardaljevic) asap if you would like to make a last- 
minute contribution.
