Publication:
A booklet of short abstracts has been provided to all participants.
Participants are invited to submit a paper to a special volume on vagueness, to be published by College Publications.
Venue:
The conference was held at Čejkovice Chateau. Čejkovice (see mapa1.jpg) is located in South Moravia, about 80 km north-west of Vienna and 15 km north of Břeclav. Participants were accommodated at the site of the conference or in the hotel Albor 500m far (see mapa2.jpg) from the Chateau.
