UserMeeting in Germany
May 26 - 27, 2004 in Ulm
Bright sunshine welcomed more than 150 people from the AutoForm
community to the German-speaking AutoForm UserMeeting at the
Maritim Hotel in Ulm.
On two days users from Germany, Austria, Netherlands and Spain
enjoyed informative presentations about the new AutoForm software
version 4.0, top-class user-presentations and exciting workshops
in the first-class convention hotel in Ulm.
Day one focused on presentations of the AutoForm‘s software
developers, who provided a survey of news and functions in release
4.0. Nine presentations explained and discussed recent developments
and new features.
A placid and informal evening in the local brewery ‘Brauhaus
Barfüßer’, a great opportunity for discussions
with fresh beer and pretzels, topped off this highly interesting
day.
The first half of the second day was reserved for presentations
of AutoForm users. Six brilliant customer presentations offered
an interesting survey of sheet metal forming experiences and aspects.
