Registration Fee
A registration fee of 120 USD in local currency will be collected
in cash at the conference desk. Payment of this sum will entitle the
participant to admission to the colloquium, participation in the social
events and receipt of a copy of the proceedings when published.
At the moment 1 USD equals about 2.55 Polish New Zloty (PLN). Old currency
banknotes (PLZ) are still used and the rate is: 1 PLN = 10000 PLZ.
Here you can have a look at the new banknotes.
A fee for accompanying persons of 30 USD will be asked upon registration
at the conference desk. The LOC is willing to organize for them short visits
of the city and its surroundings, but only if a significant number of
persons is interested.
