Announcement

The next Ada-Belgium event will take place on Sunday, June 10, 2018 in Leuven.

For the 11th year in a row, Ada-Belgium organizes their "Spring Event", which starts at noon, runs until 7pm, and includes an informal lunch, the 25th(!) General Assembly of the organization, and a round-table discussion on Ada-related topics the participants would like to bring up.

This page gives an overview of all relevant information. Announcements that were distributed to mailing lists and newsgroups are also available on the separate Ada-Belgium Spring 2018 Event Announcements page.

Participation

Everyone interested (members and non-members alike) is welcome at any or all parts of this event.

For practical reasons registration is required. If you would like to attend, please send an email before Wednesday, June 6, 21:00, to Dirk Craeynest <Dirk.Craeynest@cs.kuleuven.be> with the subject "Ada-Belgium Spring 2018 Event", so you can get precise directions to the place of the meeting. Even if you already responded to the preliminary announcement, please reconfirm your participation ASAP.

If you are interested to join Ada-Belgium, please register by filling out the 2018 membership application form and by paying the appropriate fee before the General Assembly. After payment you will receive a receipt from our treasurer and you are considered a member of the organization for the year 2018 with all member benefits. Early enrollment ensures you receive the full Ada-Belgium membership benefits (including the Ada-Europe indirect membership benefits package).

As mentioned at earlier occasions, we have a limited stock of documentation sets and Ada related CD-ROMs that were distributed at previous events, as well as some back issues of the Ada User Journal. These will be available on a first-come first-serve basis at the General Assembly for current and new members. (Please indicate in the above-mentioned registration e-mail that you're interested, so we can bring enough copies.)

Informal lunch

The organization will provide food and beverage to all Ada-Belgium members. Non-members who want to participate at the lunch are also welcome: they can choose to join the organization or pay the sum of 15 Euros per person to the Treasurer of the organization.

General Assembly

All Ada-Belgium members have a vote at the General Assembly, can add items to the agenda, and can be a candidate for a position on the Board. See the separate official convocation for all details.

Ada Round-Table Discussion



As in recent years, we plan to keep the technical part of the Spring event informal as well. We will have a round-table discussion on Ada-related topics the participants would like to bring up. We invite everyone to briefly mention how they are using Ada in their work or non-work environment, and/or what kind of Ada-related activities they would like to embark on. We hope this might spark some concrete ideas for new activities and collaborations.

Directions

To permit this more interactive and social format, the event takes place at private premises in Leuven. As instructed above, please inform us by e-mail if you would like to attend, and we'll provide you precise directions to the place of the meeting. Obviously, the number of participants we can accommodate is not unlimited, so don't delay...

Looking forward to meet many of you!
