Your conference and programme chairs are happy to announce that we will be holding a very special Birds of a Feather session at WWW7 - the World Wide Web Winetasting BOF (W4BOF). 

This BOF will bring together the many Web researchers and technologists around the world who also love their wine. Many winemakers now have their own sites and we can evaluate their sites while tasting their wines. Many winemakers and wine merchants have on-line purchasing facilities, so if you particularly like something, you can order it on the spot and have it shipped home! 

We will be providing a light meal during the tasting. 

NOMINATIONS! Please tell us your favourite wine Web site and we will 
list it below and on the night, we will visit all these sites and 
select the one we think is the best! Email Helen at hla@cs.nott.ac.uk 

WHERE? Room M3 

WHEN? Thursday evening, from 7:30pm until we finish all the wine! 

FEE? The entry fee for this wonderful event is: ticket ($20 for food) and a 
bottle of wine. To enhance the international flavour of the event, we would like you to bring a bottle of wine from your own country if possible, however we understand that it can be difficult to carry wine around the world, so please feel free to bring a locally-purchased bottle if you prefer. 

SIGN UP? We would appreciate early sign-up for this event, so that we can organise enough glassware, food and corkpullers :-) Please purchase your $20 W3BOF ticket at the main Conference desk in the foyer BEFORE 7.30pm on Wednesday. Bring your ticket and your bottle of wine to M3 at 7.30pm on Thursday. (Places are limited so purchase your ticket early.)
