> the Netherlands, on the weekend of May 14-15. The conference will be
> held at the Infrahuis Noord.
>=20
> More information about Groningen, hotels, etc. can be found on the
> local information page of the conference website:
>=20
> http://conference.conlang.org/lcc4/local.php
>=20
> On the evening of Friday, May 13th there will be an informal social

>=20
>=20
> PROGRAM
>=20
> The Language Creation Conference features two days of talks,

> If you want to participate in the LCC4 relay (whether or not you will
> attend LCC4 in person), please send an e-mail to dave@dedalvs.com.
>=20
> The LCS is still seeking presenters for LCC4. Talks are either 45
> minutes (for topics that are of general interest to conlangers), or 15
> minutes (for topics that are focused on a single conlang). You can
> also submit a "poster", which can be nearly any display that will fit
> in the conference space.
>=20
> For more information, please see our call for papers at
> http://conference.conlang.org/lcc4/call.php
>=20
> If you're interested in presenting, please e-mail conference@conlang.org.
>=20
> If there is a presenter you would like to see, or you have an idea for
> a talk, panel or workshop, please email conference@conlang.org with
> your suggestions.

>=20

>=20
> In addition to a =E2=82=AC15 discount on the conference fee, LCS membersh=
ip
> has other benefits (e.g. free webspace, and two of your own
> yoururl.conlang.org websites). Of course, the primary reason to join

> as everything else we do.

>=20
> THE LCC IN EUROPE
>=20
> The actual cost to us of hosting the conference, per person, is
> approximately =E2=82=AC75. As such, attendees paying the standard rates a=
bove
> are being subsidized by the donations and LCS membership fees of
> others.
>=20
> We made a commitment to our membership and to LCC attendees long ago
> to host an LCC in Europe, and we plan to make good on that commitment,
> even if we lose ~$1,000 (about half our annual income), as we
> are currently anticipating. We also still believe in our policy of
> ensuring that lack of money should not be a barrier to attendance.
>=20
> That said, if we don't at least approximately break even on LCC4, we
> may not be financially able to hold an LCC in Europe again. We would
> very much like to do so, but there is only so much we can do as an
> organization with a small pool of resources, and there are other
> things that we would like to be able to spend our limited resources on
> (such as an editor for the LCS podcast, publication of our upcoming
> journal Fiat Lingua, etc).
>=20
> Therefore, if you are able, please donate to the LCS to help support
> this conference. We suggest a donation of =E2=82=AC15-30, to cover the co=
st
> shortfall for 1-2 people's attendance (your own, if you're attending).
> Donations can be made at http://conlang.org/donate.php or at the door.
> Please email lcs@conlang.org for alternate payment methods.
>=20
> Donators of more than =E2=82=AC30 will be thanked for their generosity in=
 the
> conference program (anonymously, if they prefer).
>=20
> We would also greatly appreciate donations of labor or technology for
> the conference, or conlanger-related goods for a silent auction.
> Please email conference@conlang.org to let us know what you have to
> contribute.
>=20
> We want to be sure to get as many attendees as possible so please help
> us by getting the word out as widely as you can=E2=80=94especially to tho=
se
> conlangers living in Western Europe!

>=20
> QUESTIONS? COMMENTS?
