Dresden Olympiad

Time is running out for countries to submit their registrations for the Dresden Olympiad. The final cut-off for late registrations is the 12th September 2008. The 17 highlighted countries below have had their registrations confirmed as per the official Olympiad site. Amongst the missing are several regular participants such as Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Angola and Uganda. The Nigerians are in the process of completing their team selections while the Ugandans are on a fund raising drive and Kenya should be sending a team. Let us hope that the number of participating countries from Africa increases substantially in the next fortnight.
