Dear Kevin,

I'm writing to the list because I think that my question is of general
interest.

Maybe I missed something but by reading the recent "ImageJ
conference"-threads on this list I got the impression that it is already
decided that the next conference will _not_ be held in Luxemburg or
Europe but in North-America.

Is my impression correct or is the "continent question" also open?

Best regards

Herbie
