     The Sixth International Workshop on Machine Learning will be

The workshop will be divided into four to six disjoint	sessions,
each  focusing on a different theme. Each session will be chaired
by a different member of the machine learning community, and will
consist	 of  30	 to  50	 participants  invited	on  the	 basis of
abstracts submitted to the session chair. Plenary  sessions  will
be held for invited talks.

     People interested in chairing one	of  the	 sessions  should
submit	a  one-page  proposal,	stating the topic of the session,
sites  at  which  research  is	currently  done	 on  this  topic,
estimated  attendance,	format	of  the	 session,  and	their own
qualifications as session chair.  Proposals should  be	submitted
by November 1, 1988 to the program chair:
