Initial face to face for MBUI Working Group

With our charter calling for first public working drafts in March, we
would like to invite you to our first face to face meeting which will
take place in Kaiserslautern in Germany, and will be hosted by DFKI. Our
local organizer is Moritz Kümmerling <moritz.kuemmerling@dfki.de>.

The proposed date of the meeting is February 9th to 10th. We realize
that this is quite soon, but it is important for us to get stuck in as
it will take some time and effort to go from initial submissions to
first public working drafts. I am working hard to get us the submissions
in time! If you plan to make a submission please get in contact with as
soon as possible!

We are expecting to provide a means for people to call in remotely if
they can't be present in person. If you can't make the 9th and 10th, and
would like to move the dates please let Moritz and I know and we will do
our best to accommodate your request, but note that the previous week
and the following two weeks are unavailable.

We will create a wiki page for the meeting shortly, and I will send a
further email with a pointer. By Plane, it is most convenient to fly to
either Frankfurt or Stuttgart. Kaiserslautern can be reached by train
from both airports within 2-3 hours. Travel time Frankkfurt (M)
Flughafen to Kaiserslauten Hbf is around 1:24 to 1:41 with a change of
train at Mannheim. For schedules try

Moritz will provide a list of hotels for your consideration along with
details of how to get to the DFKI site itself. The agenda will also be
put onto the wiki.
