Dear TeXies and conference sympathizers,

once again the GUST Board and the BachoTeX conference Organizing Committee
decided to call it off because of the returning dangerous waves of SARS-CoV-2
infections.

Those of you who have been to Bachotek know that one of the main strengths of
our conferences is the proximity of dozens like minded people during several
days of intensive work and discussions, with almost no ways for evasion. This
creates an environment for generating new ideas, gaining knowledge effortlessly
as if by inhaling and – last but not least – supporting friendships. Citing
Bogusław Jackowski: "ideas are created between heads".

Unfortunately such physical conditions in the times of an epidemic are a serious
weakness. Just try to imagine problems with even one case of an infection in
such conditions...

For the future: BachoTeX in 2023 will be, on standard dates, with the same
leading theme. Keep fingers crossed!

-- Jerzy Ludwichowski
(For the Organizing Committee)
