Announcement
------------
The next Ada-Belgium event will take place on Sunday, June 25, 2017
in the Wavre area, south of Brussels.

For the 10th year in a row, Ada-Belgium decided to organize their
"Spring Event", though strictly speaking it will already be summer
then ;-), which starts at noon, runs until 7pm, and includes an
informal lunch, the 24th General Assembly of the organization, and a
round-table discussion on Ada-related topics the participants would
like to bring up.

Schedule
--------
  * 12:00 welcome and getting started (please be there!)
  * 12:15 informal lunch
  * 15:00 Ada-Belgium General Assembly
  * 16:00 Ada round-table + informal discussions
  * 19:00 end

Participation
-------------
Everyone interested (members and non-members alike) is welcome at
any or all parts of this event.

For practical reasons registration is required. If you would like
to attend, please send an email before Wednesday, June 21, 21:00,
to Dirk Craeynest <Dirk.Craeynest@cs.kuleuven.be> with the subject
"Ada-Belgium Spring 2017 Event", so you can get precise directions
to the place of the meeting. Even if you already responded to the
preliminary announcement, please reconfirm your participation ASAP.

If you are interested to join Ada-Belgium, please register by
filling out the 2017 membership application form[1] and by paying the
appropriate fee before the General Assembly. After payment you will
receive a receipt from our treasurer and you are considered a member of
the organization for the year 2017 with all member benefits[2]. Early
enrollment ensures you receive the full Ada-Belgium membership benefits
(including the Ada-Europe indirect membership benefits package).

As mentioned at earlier occasions, we have a limited stock of
documentation sets and Ada related CD-ROMs that were distributed
at previous events, as well as back issues of the Ada User
Journal[3]. These will be available on a first-come first-serve basis
at the General Assembly for current and new members. (Please indicate
in the above-mentioned registration e-mail that you're interested,
so we can bring enough copies.)

Informal lunch
--------------
The organization will provide food and beverage to all Ada-Belgium
members. Non-members who want to participate at the lunch are also
welcome: they can choose to join the organization or pay the sum of
15 Euros per person to the Treasurer of the organization.

General Assembly
----------------
All Ada-Belgium members have a vote at the General Assembly, can add
items to the agenda, and can be a candidate for a position on the
Board[4]. See the separate official convocation[5] for all details.

Ada Round-Table Discussion
--------------------------
As in recent years, we plan to keep the technical part of the Spring
event informal as well. We will have a round-table discussion on
Ada-related topics the participants would like to bring up. We invite
everyone to briefly mention how they are using Ada in their work or
non-work environment, and/or what kind of Ada-related activities they
would like to embark on. We hope this might spark some concrete ideas
for new activities and collaborations.

Directions
----------
To permit this more interactive and social format, the event takes
place at private premises in the Wavre area, south of Brussels. As
instructed above, please inform us by e-mail if you would like to
attend, and we'll provide you precise directions to the place of the
meeting. Obviously, the number of participants we can accommodate is
not unlimited, so don't delay...

Looking forward to meet many of you!
