[comp.org.acm] Technology Exchange Invitation

Me again.....

I have recently been invited to join in a 'technology exchange' with the
eastern Europe block.  What this means is that I and fellow professionals
will be travelling to eastern Europe to discuss issues in the areas of MIS.
It's apparently being sponsor by a group known as 'People to People
International' as a part of their 'Citizen Ambassador Program'.

The invitation implied that I was invited partially due to my being a member 
of the BDPSIG of the ACM.  The kicker is that I haveto pay my own way.

Has anyone else received such an invitation? (I guess I'm trying to determine
if this is a singular offer, or if it's a mass market type of thing.) Likewise, 
does anyone have any knowledge about this offer and/or organization. 
Is it for real, or just another travel agency type organization?
