The conference homepage, servdes.org, is launched, together with the new logo and the announcement of the Call for contributions. We are really happy with the work Doberman have done and excited to open the page for the public.
We have also gained some ground in the planning of the unconference part (Dec 1st 2010) of the conference, after a long and rewarding meeting with Arne van Oosterom. Hopefully we will have a discussion going around themes and structure of that part. You can participate by going to the Wenovski forum.
We have chosen a venue for the conference. Thursday and Friday (Dec 2-3 2010) will be spent in the concert and conference hall in Linköping (it's marked on the map on the homepage). We intend to take a few photos and show you more from the venue in the future.
From now on, the open planning is moved to the new homepage and the Wenovski forum. No further activity on this blog will be instigated by us.
Thank you.

Unveiling of theme, date and format
The theme for the conference will be ExChanging knowledge, emphasising both the restructuring of existing knowledge inherited from other disciplines, as well as the distribution of experiences among the participants.
The date has been preliminary set to 1st – 3rd of December 2010. The date was chosen not to interfere with this year’s Thanksgiving and also not to be too close to the network conference in Berlin in October. Like last year, in Oslo, it will be a 3 day event with lots of interesting presentations. The first day will be held in an unconference format to provide opportunities for participants to openly discuss interesting topics, cooperations, definitions and future challenges. We are delighted to have been joined by Arne van Oosterom in the preparations and discussions for that part of the conference.
The following two days will be set up as a mixed conference, with sessions dedicated to specific themes or topics that are discussed from a research-, practitioners-, and client perspective. The scientific content of the conference will have a double-blind review process and information about call for papers will be announced soon.
As always, any comments, ideas, or suggestions are welcome. As of late you can also be a part of the discussions by joining the Wenovski design thinkers network, and our group there called Nordic Service Design Conference 2010.
We hope to see you in Linköping in December!

New name
We decided that the old name was too long and put unnecessary focus on the nordic part. Last year we had participants all the way from Australia and Mexico, and since the focus of the conference is service design we collectively decided to call it ServDes.
Doberman is working diligently at the moment to produce a logo and a webpage for the conference. Stay tuned for the result.
