Ah yes, I might have misunderstood you, sorry. But the situation
really is confusing. It used to be like this, until recently:

Two "OpenExpo's" per year, one in Berne, and one in Winterthur (near
Zurich). Both were quite similar, and we attended both of them
regularly. Now they scrapped on of them, and created this "Forum"
instead. To be honest, I've yet to understand this system fully.
Myriam tried to explain it to me a few times, but somehow it's beyond
me ;)

Anyway, I would like to attend both of these events, if possible.
