Word of the Conference Chair
APCPST8 started off rather slowly. In fact, by the time of the first deadline
for registration, back in April 2006, we had a grand sum total of two
(2)!!! Considering it judicious to extend the deadline, we proceeded into
a sequence of extensions until there were at least 100 full registrations.
Three weeks before the conference itself we had around 150 attending and
then ordered the conference bags, programmes, T shirts and wine. We actually
over ordered for 180 so there would be a surplus. On the day we started
the conference there were about 174 registered but to our surprise another
35 or so registered at the conference so the grand total was a tad over
210 attendees (as far as we can estimate). We are very sorry to those
who did not get a conference bag but that is the price of success. Thank
you all for coming and making this conference the best we have had in
Australia. We especially appreciated the poster sessions which were very
well attended and many new collaborations started. In 2008 we will be
in China and Prof Wu is the conference chair. APCPST8 wish him all the
best!
