--- forwarded on behalf of Håkan Nilsson ---

Dear OpenFOAM community,

With this message I would like to inform/remind you that the 5th OpenFOAM 
workshop will take place at Chalmers, Gothenburg, Sweden, June 21-24, 2010.

The homepage, www.openfoamworkshop.org, has been updated with an abstract 
submission form, and the final date for abstract submission is set to March 
15th. The scope of the workshop covers all aspects of OpenFOAM usage.

The workshop fees will be announced shortly, but the workshop is a non-profit 
event, so the fees will be kept as low as possible. Keep your eyes open for 
updates of the homepage, announcements in the forum, or send an e-mail to 
of...@op... to be included in the announcement e-mail list.

The organizers of the 4th (previous) workshop, in Montreal, Canada, 2009, has 
decided that all the money left from that activity will be spent by offering 
financial support for participation at the 5th workshop, for selected 
participants. Details on how to apply for such funding is now also available 
at the homepage. The deadline for this is also March 15th.

Preliminary reservations of hotel rooms have been made. Each hotel alternative 
has separate deadlines. Please make your registration directly with the hotel 
of your choice according to the instructions at the homepage, as soon as you 
have decided to attend the workshop. NOTE that the cheapest alternative has a 
deadline before the workshop registration deadline!!!
