Dear colleagues of Division 8,

I hope you and your family are fine even in the COVID-19 Pandemic. Actually, in Japan, the situation is very uncertain, especially in Tokyo and Osaka.

As for the captioned matter, it was decided that the ACID RAIN 2020 conference would be postponed to late 2021 or early 2022. Although the actual new date is still under discussion, we have just updated HP to inform potential participants of the current situation.
https://www.acidrain2020.org

The name of the conference "ACID RAIN 2020" will not be changed to utilize the materials prepared so far (such as logo, HP, registration system, etc.).

I will inform you when the new date is decided.
Thank you for your understanding on this matter.

Best regards,
Hiro
