Augusto,
So concretely, for FORTE 2001 (August) and Middleware 2001 (November), which are conferences for which BPAs have already been given in the past, shall I keep 500 US$ or shall I switch to 500 Euros?
Best regards, Guy

Dear Guy,
I support your idea of having a unique currency for our expenses, which should be euro, because IFIP adopted that currency.
Concerning the exact value to be attributed to BPA and also the amount to be spent in other items, like student travel grants, I propose to discuss it in our next meeting. In the Cape Town meeting we defined already the budget for 2002, which will be shown in the meeting minutes. In Zurich, we should link that budget to specific values in the BPA and student travel grants for 2002. For 2001, we will continue to analyse the different cases individually, but it seems adequate that, at least for the conferences that have the BPA for the first time we only allocate 500 Euro. In view of the finances status, I am in favour of having some contention in our expenses, and it seems that the euro will still be a bit lower than the dollar for some time!
Best regards
Augusto

Dear Augusto and everyone,
The IFIP TC6 Best Paper Award, which was of 500 US$, could be converted to 500 Euros. The amount remains approx. the same, and IFIP uses Euros now.
What do you think?
Best regards, Guy

Dear Guy,
I propose that in these cases, and for 2001, we keep the same value as previously. However, may be you can already tell the steering committees that we are considering to convert it into 500 Euro from 2002 on. I feel that 500 euro is a reasonable amount for the BPA. We will discuss it in Zurich, as told in my previous mail.
Best regards
Augusto
