Dear Colleague,

this is the second bulletin for the Transversity 2005 workshop, to take place
in Como from 7th. to 10th. September 2005 with the title:

               International Workshop on
  Transverse Polarisation Phenomena in Hard Processes
                  (Transversity 2005)

First and foremost, for those intending to participate, the registration
deadline (5th. August) is fast approaching.  We should perhaps remind you that
Como is also a very popular tourist resort and that September is still a period
of intense activity.  It is thus vital that hotel accommodation be arranged
soon; the Centro Volta organisation, while happy and willing to provide all
possible assistance, cannot guarantee availability beyond 5th. August.

The workshop web pages, containing much necessary and useful information,
including registration and hotel booking forms, may be found at:

  http://scienze-como.uninsubria.it/phil/WS2005/

The registration fee, covering coffee breaks, lunches, conference dinner
(including an excursion on lake Como) and a copy of the proceedings, is 250
Euros.

A more-or-less final list of speakers (together with the committee lists) may
be found at the foot of this message.  The available time slots have now all
been filled and any further requests to make presentations can only be accepted
on a waiting-list basis.

Additional information may be obtained directly from
philip.ratcliffe@uninsubria.it

Best wishes, the Local Organising Committee:

  Vincenzo Barone (Alessandria)
  Maria Pia Bussa (Torino)
  Delia Hasch (Frascati)
  Paolo Lenisa (Ferrara)
  Anna Martin (Trieste)
  Philip G. Ratcliffe (Insubria, Chair)
