               Early Registration Ends on March 14, 2008
               -----------------------------------------

  FLOPS is a forum for research on all issues concerning declarative
  programming, including functional programming and logic programming,
  and aims to promote cross-fertilization between the two paradigms.
  Previous FLOPS meetings were held in Fuji Susono (1995), Shonan
  Village (1996), Kyoto (1998), Tsukuba (1999), Tokyo (2001), Aizu
  (2002), Nara (2004) and Fuji Susono (2006).

VENUE

  The meeting will be held at the Ise City Plaza, located in Ise,
  Japan, famous for its shrine rebuilt every 20 year since 13
  centuries ago.

REGISTRATION

  The registration is now open at the symposium home page:
  http://www.math.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~garrigue/FLOPS2008/

PROCEEDINGS

  The proceedings will be published as a volume in Lecture Notes in
  Computer Science, Springer, Volume 4989, and distributed at the
  symposium.
