I wouldn't mind helping out. However, I'm not too enthousiastic about 
"day 0", which would completely destroy the weekend :p
Organizing a social event could be cool (belgian beer tasting?), a 
symposium/workshop/tutorial on a parallel track gives lots of 
opportunities too.

May I ask why you post this on binari and not on beg?
    

Because I always get such an overwhelming response on that list. Binari
seems like a better targeted list to actually get some interested people.

But I suppose I could also post it on the BEG list. I'll do that in a
minute.

Hi all,

During ISMB/ECCB 2009, the ISCB Student Council discussed the idea to
prepare an event associated to ECCB 2010 which will be held in Ghent in
Belgium, September 26-29 2010.
http://www.eccb2010.org/

The organizing committee is highly supporting us. During the Student
Council open business meeting, Michal Linial, chair of the ECCB steering
committee, suggested we do something. We also talked to Yves Moreau, who
will likely be the chair of ECCB 2010.

The first day, Sunday 26, there will be workshops and tutorials. Then,
27-28-29, there will be talks. Mainly a main single track with some
software demos in parallel at some points.

    * Sunday 26 evening will be the opening reception.
    * Monday 27 ?
    * Tuesday 28 will be the conference social event.
    * Wednesday 29, everybody leave.

The opportunities so far would be:

    * Organize a social event (think drinking) on Monday evening (Yves
M. told us he can give money!!)
    * Organize any event (symposium, speed-dating, workshop, soft
skills, tutorial, ...)
      —> either on a new day 0 (Saturday 25). Yves told us they may put
some stuffs on this day 0.
      —> or on a parallel track during the conference


If anyone is interested in helping out, please let me know. So far we
have people from The Netherlands, France and Germany interested in
helping out, but it would be nice if more people from Gent could be
involved.

thanks,
Thomas
