Regarding Dinner Friday and Conference Party Saturday
After Scott McConnell's opening lecture on Friday, we will have dinner at a restaurant in Oslo and would like you to join us. Participation is of course optional - and the cost is not included in the conference fee - but this is a nice chance to get to know the other participants before the bulk of lectures on Saturday starts.

On Saturday evening (the 18th) we invite all participants to our conference party. Our gracious host, and co-conference organizer, is Karl Martin Mertens (he is a graduate student in philosophy). His spacious penthouse apartment has a terrace - ideally suited for barbeque, even in October - with a nice view overlooking the Oslo Fjord. We plan to barbeque and make food in an informal setting. Food and drinks are not included but we will prepare some nice food and provide a nice and affordable evening. If you want to join us indicate so at the registration page.
