German Perspective—21.04.09
What happened this week: Last week, most of the trade had time to digest their trips to Asia and to take a break over Easter for a bit of relaxation. Many even decided that they had done enough travelling for the time being and skipped Lineapelle in Bologna, which took place this week. Many were, justifiably, complaining about the timing of the show. However, on the other hand, the dates ensured that the people who went were those who actually needed to go.
