Parking is not allowed neither in turmstrasse nor on the parking ground opposite of the theatersaal. if you should happen not to have much equipment simply drive to bendplatz (kuehlwetterstrasse) and park there. for those who didn't get it there will be signs guiding to the location. just as last year. a map is available on our homepage and will be included with the next official infofile. train ˇ if you're coming by train exit aachen hauptbahnhof. from there on you have to take the bus. the bus-station you will find right when you exit the station. every 15 minutes lines 3 and 13 will take you to the location (do not cross the street or you will go in the wrong direction). after 20 minutes the bus will stop at ponttor. exit the bus, turn towards the crossing and turn left then. on the other side of the road you will find the sign 'mensa', the location of the evoke. another solution could be to exit aachen west. from the station go to inzestrasse, turn left and you will find the mensa-sign again. prefer this solution if you don't have lots of equipment and if you find a train which stops directly at aachen west. in any case please contact dv8 for more information. in some cases we could catch you from any of the mentioned stations. plane ˇ try to book a trip to 'maastricht-aachen'. other airports could be 'luettich', 'koeln/bonn' or 'duesseldorf'. in every case, please contact the organizers. more info ˇ either check out or homepage or wait for the forthcoming versions of this infofile. for more information on aachen you can contact the 'verkehrsverein bad aachen' at acinfo@t-online.de __ (-------\/----------------------------------------- sponsors ---------) as for the moment we have three companys to support evoke. still, we are in close contact to some major hard- and software producers. micrografx ˇ micrografx donated a copy of their 'windows draw 6'. thanx. scala ˇ scala are going to donate two copies of their wonderful multimedia-system called 'scala multimedia mm200'. we are going use this program to show announcements on the bigscreen, by the way. softcom ˇ just as last year they offer bandwith and capacity for our webpage. take a look at their site at http://www.softcom.de __ (-------\/----------------------------------------- competition ---------) besides meeting friends, it's the compos that make us come to parties like evoke. some things about the compo went really wrong last year. we don‹t want to beautify this. as we hope to have learned from our faults, we made some changes to the rules. for example, there will be 100% public voting and - for each compo - a dedicated organizer. just like last year we will give away all the money as prices, which was left after paying our bills. compo-pc . right now, we are not sure about the final configuration of the compo-pc. but it will be a pentium 166 with 32mb ram and a gus, at least. . as for the beamer the maximum resolution is 640*480. ˇ watch out for the forthcoming infofiles. general rules . the competitor must be present at the party. in case of a group-production, at least one member of the group. . every attender may contribute with a maximum of one entry for every compo. . entries must not have been released before and they must be handed in before each deadline (on 3.5" or zip-disc). 3.5"-discs will not be given back to the contributors!
