Dear colleague, the Deadline for Registrations and Abstract Submissions to ECLOUD'02 is January 31, rapidly approaching. Participants may register and submit abstracts through the workshop web site http://wwwslap.cern.ch/ecloud02 if they have not already done so. Also all invited speakers are reminded to submit an abstract for their presentation. The preliminary programme can be found on the above web site, where soon after the deadline we will post an updated version as well as lists of the registered participants and of all the abstracts we have received. Participants wishing to stay on the CERN site should mention the ECLOUD'02 workshop when they contact the CERN hostel (http://cern.web.ch/CERN/housing/hotel/Hostel.html ), as we have reserved a number of rooms especially for this event. (There have been a few problems, for which we like to apologize, but this procedure should function now. In case of any difficulties please contact Juliette Thomashausen.) For your planning purposes, we remind you that the workshop registration will commence on Sunday (14/04) in the late afternoon, and that we are organizing a self-financed dinner in an Italian restaurant following this registration. We thank you for your interest in the ECLOUD'02 workshop and are looking forward to greeting you in Geneva, Giovanni Rumolo, Francesco Ruggiero, Juliette Thomashausen, Frank Zimmermann
