To the members of IUHPS/DLMPS: The Executive Committee (EC) of IUHPS/DLMPS has reached its decision concerning the location of the next LMPS Congress in 2007, a decision delegated to the EC by the General Assembly of DLMPS in Oviedo on August 9, 2003. We have been fortunate, this time, to have two excellent proposals for hosting the next LMPS Congress, one from Beijing and one from Lyon. In fact, they are of such quality that it has not been possible for the EC to base its decision on details of the respective proposals. Given this, our main consideration has been the fact that all previous congresses have been held in Europe (including Israel) or in North America. Since there is now for the first time a solid offer to host a congress outside of this sphere, it seemed incumbent on us to honor the truly international character of DLMPS. The EC has therefore decided to let the next LMPS Congress take place at Hsinghua University in Beijing. However, we are also most grateful for the excellent French proposal. Given the strong position of France in the field of LMPS, it is desirable that an LMPS Congress should be arranged there. Therefore, the EC has also decided that, if France puts forward a proposal for the LMPS Congress after the next one, in 2011, and if that proposal is as solid as the one made for 2007, the EC will support it.
