Dear colleagues,

This is an invitation to attend TII 2008 Terminology and Information Interoperability.

As every year the International Information Centre for Terminology (Infoterm), together with ISO/TC 37 „Terminology and other language and content resources“, is organizing a conference in conjunction with the annual meetings of ISO/TC 37.
