<p>Thank you Pedro for reposting the list. Together with the link to the videos on youtube it gives a wonderful impression of the high quality talks we had at Berkeley conference. Enjoy the summer and share your thoughts with scientists who burn for information science like you do!</p>

Needless to say that outdoors of the conference there were very exciting exchanges. For instance, the idea of a possible "manifesto" on the crossroads that AI and IT have reached. The rarefied social polarization within many societies, the accumulation of economic & communication power in the hands of a few parties--almost adolescents!-- and the strange contest for world hegemony between countries and their flagship companies do constitute a new, strange panorama. "The Information New Order". Indeed, more advanced information core ideas are needed to get ahead our with collective views, and even to orientate oneself...</div>
<div dir="ltr">Anyhow, have a good time, or enter your discussion themes or personal presentations into the list if you wish, and let us prepare for the New Course.</div>
