From December 15th to 17th 2000, the "ST News International Christmas Coding Convention 2000" will take place at a location (yet to be designated) in the Netherlands. What started out as a reunion of the original event, at which just over 100 'Atari scene related' people attended, has become a much more massive event featuring as many as possible of the original attendants, as well as the 'new generation' of coders, music programmers and computer graphics artists. Of the original attendants, most have spread around the world, assuming ambitious positions in the IT business.
I would like to invite companies to send a representative, a 'talent scout' if you will, to the "STNICCC 2000" event. In exchange for this, you could either contribute towards the costs of the event, or perhaps make available company-specific hardware/software to be given away as prizes in several competitions that will be held during the event.
To help you make up your mind, I have added some more specific event-related information below (as per June 3rd 2000).
Currently, people with the following nationalities are present in the "STNICCC 2000" database of potential attendants:
Country # of People
France 70
Germany 62
Netherlands 33
U. K. 31
Sweden 25
United States 10
Austria 4
Luxemburg 2
Slovakia 1
Norway 1
Canada 1
Brazil 1
The following table represents the 'attendance likelihood':
Status # of People
Person not yet invited 21
No commitment yet 34
Possibly 29
Probably 38
Almost certain 27
Certain! 80
Definitely not 12
In the entire database, there are 30 people who have indicated that they are IT-related 'decision makers'.
