I am posting a message I just received:

Hello,
This is a short note to let you know that a symposium will be held at Arcada Nova, in Helsinki Finland, on October 6-8 this year.
LoW1 will be concerned with the philosophy, politics, and culture of virtual worlds, with special reference to their development in educational, artistic and theological contexts.
The aim of the seminar will be to bring together 27 people to discuss the issues and form the nucleus of a permanent body, the League of Worlds. This has a mission statement something like this:
"to share information, stimulate research, analysis, theory and technical developments in the creative, educational, and training-based use of role-playing, simulations and virtual worlds; and to contribute towards the development of a coherent framework for their advancement and assessment".
We are asking whether you would be interested in being one of these 27, or in attending the gathering as an "associate".
You can see much more about our plans and hopes at:
http://www.leagueofworlds.com
If you are in any way interested in attending (or otherwise participating) then please reply to this in the next week or so, and we will add you to our list of people-who-want-to-be-informed. If you are not at all interested then please just file this away under "something that somebody else is doing"
Have a good summer,
Owen Kelly
