1. 2nd CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR IAU SCIENTIFIC MEETINGS IN 2009:
    SYMPOSIA, GA-SYMPOSIA, GA-JOINT DISCUSSIONS AND
    GA-SPECIAL SESSIONS

The IAU is soliciting proposals for scientific meetings in 2009:

outside the scope of the IAU XXVII General Assembly:

* three regular 5-day IAU Symposia, to be held at least three months
  before or after the IAU XXVII General Assembly.

within the scope of the IAU XXVII General Assembly,
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 3-14 August 2009:

* six 3.5-day IAU GA-Symposia;
* up to twenty 0.5-1.5-day IAU GA-Joint Discussions;
* up to ten 0.5-3.0-day IAU GA-Special Sessions.

For all these scientific meetings, prospective proposers should observe
the Rules and Guidelines for IAU Scientific Meetings, as presented at
<http://www.iau.org/Rules_Guidelines.200.0.html>

Note that for meetings held at the GA, no LOC nor registration fee is to be
proposed.

Letters of Intent for IAU Scientific Meetings in 2009 should be
submitted to

Dr. Ian F. Corbett
IAU Assistant General Secretary
c/o ESO
Karl-Schwarzschild-Strasse 2
D-85748 Garching bei Munchen
Germany
<icorbett en eso.org >,
on or before 15 September 2007, in accordance
with the Rules and Guidelines for IAU Scientific Meetings.

Final proposals have to be submitted to the IAU Proposal Web Server
<http://solarphys.uio.no/IAU/> on or before 1 December 2007,
following the instructions given in that Server, and certainly not later
than 15 December 2007.

It is essential that the all IAU Scientific Meetings cover important areas
of topical interest, demonstrating continued progress in astronomy
research.

Members are reminded that proposals for all Symposia, GA-Symposia,
GA-Joint Discussions and GA-Special Sessions have to be backed by a
coordinating IAU Division and endorsed by a reasonable number of
IAU Divisions, IAU Commissions and IAU Working Groups. A report of
the communication with Division and Commission Presidents on the
proposal has to be included in the proposal. The AGS will appreciate
advance notice of such reports.

Selection of the IAU Scientific Meeting 2009 programme will be made
by the IAU Executive Committee and Division Presidents in late May 2008.

2. THE INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF ASTRONOMY 2009

All members are invited to have a look at the rapidly developing
activities for the IYA 2009, with worldwide activities planned at
national and regional levels.
