Dear minor planet observers,
   
  During the first MACE2002 held last year in Visnjan, Croatia,
where observers, orbit computers and other people involved of
13 different countries shared an interesting scientific programme
and enjoyed a wonderful social plan, some ideas concerning the
role of the european minor planet astrometry future were discussed
and some objectives were established. With the purpose of continuing
the line drawn those days and for improving and searching for new
goals, we have the pleasure of announcing the new MACE 2003 edition
that will be held at OAM - Mallorca Observatory, in Mallorca island,
on the Mediterranean sea, Spain, during the next May 1-4, 2003.
      We look forward to seeing you in Mallorca !
  
   Yours sincerely
                Salvador Sanchez
      On behalf of the Local Organizing Committee
