> GENERAL INFORMATION
> ===================
>
> For the 11th consecutive year, the European Smalltalk User Group
> organizes a Smalltalk Conference to bring together Smalltalk users
> from  both academia and industry in a friendly atmosphere.  As always
> the  attendants will enjoy tutorials, workshops and demonstrations on
>       various Smalltalk related subjects. New this year is that the  
> talks
> are  scheduled primarily in the morning and that the afternoon focuses
> on  concrete collaborations between participants and workshops.
>
> Continuing a strong tradition in organizing Smalltalk events for
> Smalltalk practitioners, this year promises to be very exiting. ESUG
> organizes a Smalltalk Joint Event comprised of Camp Smalltalk,
> Advanced  Seminars and a Research track:
>           - An official (and free) Camp Smalltalk, starting the  
> week-end
> before and continuing the rest of the week.
>           - The Advanced Seminars, where invited speakers and technical
> presenters show concrete applications and research using Smalltalk.
>           - ESUG Research Track: an academic research track with
> top-of-the-line program committee. A separate call for paper was
> issued  for this event, which is attached to this mail at the bottom.
>
> All these exiting events will take place in the last week of August,
> between the 23rd and 29th.
>
> As always, we cannot make this work without contributions from the
> actual Smalltalk practitioners.  Therefore we invite people to submit
>       proposals to present papers (both academic or industrial,  
> technical
> or  experience report), or to exhibit.  Together with invited speakers
> and  Campers this promises to be another exciting Smalltalk event.
>
>
> INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROSPECTIVE SPEAKERS
> =====================================
>
> Prospective speakers must clearly explain the format they would like
