The "Virtual Reality World"of Stuttgart has with "Virtual World" of
Cologne only in common, that it was planned in Germany. WE ARE NOT
AFFILIATED.

The conference will take place from 10th to 12th of June in Cologne, in
the facilities of the German Aerospace Establishment. More info at:
http://www.virtualword.de.

"Virtual Reality World" was - as I understood - cancelled basically
because of copyright issues about the name. This event was planned for
February, I think.
