Syndicate: RE-ANNOUNCEMENT -- WRO 99

[Open Studio/WRO <wro@info.wcss.wroc.pl>]

---------------------------------------------------------------
The new deadline for entries to WRO 99 video art competition is
January 23th, 1999
---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi syndicate,

for the last few days, apart from big amounts of tapes arriving every day,
we are receiving numerous requests for WRO 99 entry forms and competition
regulations, as well as many questions asking about the possibility of
sending cassettes after the deadline. In this case, we decided to offer one
week extra for late comers -- the deadline has now been moved till    J a n
u a r y  2 3 rd (as postmarked).

Also, I'm taking the opportunity to apologize - the website at
http://www.wro.art.pl
(announced in our printed leaflet) is still not working due to some stupid
problems with virtual-buerocracy-administrative procedures. This is the
reason why many of you could not find the information about WRO 99.
The website problem is one of the reasons for moving the deadline. Until
this regular website is started for running and giving updated info about
WRO 99 programme, you can find some info, entry forms and competition
regulations at our temporary site
http://www.asp.wroc.pl/~ppo/wro.

best regards,
piotr krajewski
