Stéphane,
Thanks for the mentioning this! Could you share a little more about
the event?
* has it been held before?
* what size is it?
* who will be attending? (if that info is sharable)
* is there an agenda for discussions yet?
* is it a local or international in nature? (wondering if the
meeting will be held in French)
Did I mention that the event is French-speaking? :-) In practice, I
have the feeling that a number of things will happen in English but
pure English-speakers must accept that they will miss a good part of
the discussions.

It is the first of its kind, organised by INRIA-Lille. Basically,
there is a new professor there (Nicolas Roussel) who wants to create
a group working on touch and gestures, and he and his colleagues
thought that organising an event was a good way to start. The event
is French-speaking, informal, and consists of three sub-events: a
workshop, a barcamp, and a showroom.
On the Web site you can find the list of participants who announced
themselves, but attendance (at least at the barcamp) will remain open.
