Secondly, due to the popularity of the conference and to give intending delegates more time to secure funding and to confirm their attendance, the Call for Papers Deadline has now been extended to 31st January 2010. Although some working sessions are over-subscribed, there is still space in many others, and all of the twenty-four working sessions remain open.
