Stef and everybody involved in this decision, I think you made the right decision and of course I hope to meet you guys in Serbia in good health and mood next year. It was tough deciding what to do if ESUG will happen this year. Do I want to fly? Is it wise to risk bringing Corona there or back home to my family? Is it worth or is it better staying at home? I am glad this decision doesn't have to be taken any more. To the local organizers: don't worry, I am sure it will be an even happier and greater party in 2021 when we all meet again (given the overall situation allows for it). The opportunity to meet a bunch of old and new Smalltalking friends will be missed in any case... Joachim Am 18.05.20 um 10:23 schrieb Stéphane Ducasse:
Dear happy smalltalking people,
After several analyses the board in concertation with the local organisers decided to cancel ESUG in 2020. It was not an easy decision but we believe it has to be taken. We plan to organise it next year in the same place.
For IWST the PC chair will announce some dates because we would like to run it.
S. on the behalf of the ESUG board.
I hope that you and your friends and family are safe.
