This year's edition of the Codex Alpe Adria fair has been unfortunately cancelled. In its place, Radicadesign, with the collaboration of the Municipality of Papozze, is organizing a meeting called AIConf (Alternative Italian Conference) 2008, devoted to alternative platforms.

The event will be held on Saturday 12th July in Papozze, near Rovigo, Italy, inside the Papozze's sport arena. A website covering the event has been recently opened (in italian only): http://aiconf.radicadesign.com/. The following exibitors have confirmed their participation:

- ACube Systems Srl, demonstrating the Sam440 board and all the latest company's products
- Cloanto, presenting Amiga Forever 2008
- Bitplane magazine
- Virtual Works
- ItBUG, the Italian BeOS UserGroup

During the event presentations of MorphOS and Efika, AmigaOS 4, AROS, Linux and Haiku will be held, as well as an Amiga retrocomputing part and a Kick Off tourney.
