Let's see

Let's hope that Flanders will still be part of Belgium next year... I really doubt it... as I'm belgian myself. You should have chosen Brussels...

If it will come to that, we'll still call it Akademy in Belgium then. Anyone is invited even if we have to provide visa invitations to the Wallon and Bruxellois :)

But I'm sure Belgium will still exist by August 2008, no worries.

    I'm surprised you're so sure. That said, I hope you're right. It does seem ridiculous how the Walone and Flemmish politicians can't get a long. But then Belgium is the home of Surréalisme. [ A Brit living in Brussels.]

      Let's not get silly, the borders will all remain open if something happens as the language borders have already been set in law and in practice. There may come a small riot in Brussel because of youthfull heat (located in flanders but now mostly Frenchspeaking as many shopowners refused to speak Dutch, but people working there live beyond city borders in suburbs both in French and Dutch speaking Belgium) however with so many open borders nearby people feel very European and the splitstate government is of no consequence other then itself being the umbrella or the EU being the umbrella for moving some infrastructure money around.

        Well, the truth is that French is kindof supported by foreign nations and Dutch and German get discriminated.

Sure i'd prefered Brussels too but just cuz i'm living there :).
Anyway, Belgium or Belgium/2, i don't care, if it's resolved, great! if it splits, that's the way but we will finally look elsewhere and move on.

cheers and welcome.

BTW: Beers and Fries are really better in Brussels or near the coast then, in Mechelen you'll be there just for the conference. :)

    Actually, Mechelen has "Gouden Carolus Classic" which is quite good (especially at the brewery's associated restaurant where almost all meals are cooked with beer added ;) ).
