Note on the COVID-19 Pandemic
We are planning to make the event happen as scheduled, but we are also considering the possibilities of 1) turning PL<L-2020 into a virtual conference during the original dates, 2) postponing it and 3) cancelling it, depending on the development of the COVID-19 pandemic in China and around the world. We will let you know about the final decision prior to the scheduled date. We would like to assure future presenters that their work will be recognized.
