I just received on e-mail your announcement of the 3rd Annual Conference and wanted to respondI apologize first to those members of the DEVEL-L list who wish the list to avoid politics for politicizing the list.
Although I can do nothing to force my government to act humanely and intervene to stop the Serbian (a.k.a. "Yugoslavian") aggression and "ethnic cleansing" in Bosnia-Herzegovina, I can at least state that I will in no way participate in any activity that takes place in Serbia, is put on by Serbians, or in any way treats official or unofficial representatives of Serbia as accepted members of the international community.
I would hope other members of the list will likewise boycott any Serbian-sponsored activity or conference and will make those sponsoring the conference aware of their intent to treat the Serbia as an pariah among nations.
