agree  Jack den Haan: Voorkeur voor 'presenatieavonden' i.p.v. 'showcase avonden'. Wil men toch de Engelse term gebruiken, dan moet 'ie volgens mij aan elkaar of met een koppelteken worden geschreven. Oeps, 'presentatieavonden' natuurlijk...

  -> dank u Jack! de Engelse term wordt inderdaad met koppelteken geschreven

agree  Ron Willems: ook eens met Jack
