The lecture room at the Certosa is relatively small and can accommodate at most 110 participants. Concerning hotel reservations, participants will be asked to contact an organization in Siena that will book accomodation for them. The city of Siena is overcrowded in this period. For these reasons those wishing to participate should write as soon as possible, but in any case before April 15, 2000.
