Dear PATAT community,

The PATAT community was launched in the wake of the first international conference on the Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabling in 1995 (PATAT'95). Ever since, the interest group has flourished and memberships have steadily increased.

We are pleased to announce the release of a new website (patat.cs.kuleuven.be) and a new mailing list (watt@ls.kuleuven.be). From now on, these channels will be used to spread timetabling news in the community and beyond!
