The term for Tim Kovacs, Xavier Llorà, and Keiki Takadama as organizers of the International Workshop on Learning Classifier Systems is over. For the last two years we have organized the workshop and we have put together a book that covers 2003, 2004, and 2005 workshops (soon to enter the printing stage).

We have greatly enjoyed working with you all. Your friendship and help has motivated and guide us maintain alive the great effort that Pier Luca Lanzi, Stewart Wilson, and Wolfgang Stolzman started in 1999.

We would humbly put out this call for organizer for IWLCS 2007. For those of you that have been with us in the workshops, please, do not be afraid and volunteer. We would encourage you to get in touch with us before August 1st. Just sent and email to any of us (Tim Kovacs, Xavier Llorà, and Keiki Takadama). We would announce the next organizing committee by September 1st.

Thank you all for all the support during this two-year period!
Tim, Xavier, Keiki.
