Dear RP colleagues,

Here it is ! This is the previsionnal program of the conferences (see
details below) of the 8th European Conference on Rapid Prototyping, Paris,
3rd and 4th May 2000.
On line on the web site (http://www.art-of-design.com/assises2000), you can
also see the map of the exhibition Hall (44 professionnal structures have
already reserved, but you can reserve your booth and attend this major
event, it is not too late !).
I hope many of you would appreciate the quality and the importance of the
conferences, and would attend (you can register on line on the web site).
If you need any more informations, please contact the Commissariat general
