[comp.sys.apollo] Call for papers

Giebelhaus@HI-MULTICS.ARPA (05/21/87)

The ADUS conference will be held September 20 - 23 at the Meridian Hotel
in downtown San Francisco.  (ADUS is Apollo DOMAIN User's Society)
Papers will be welcome for most anything that has to do with the Apollo
or any area of computing which the people who use apollos would find
intereasting. 

If you are an ADUS member, you should be sent the call for papers on May
31.  If you are not an ADUS member, why not; it is free.  

The part I am interested in is the UNIX.  If you have some area of UNIX
you want to hear about or something you want to talk about, please let
me know.  I'm open for all ideas and will work like "heck" to get
something the ADUS users want to see.

Some things I am thinking of doing different this year are trying to keep
more on schedule and trying to schedule better.  Acually, the SIG
chairmen did not make the schedules last year.  I would also like to see
talks of third party vendors about their products moved to a seperate
session.  What does every one think of this?

Would you like some panel discussions?  About what?  Shall we have just
speakers?  Perhaps people would be interested in hearing a talk from
Apollo on the future directions of IX?

How long of talks should we have?  How long for questions afterwords?
How long should the entire session be?  Should we have a break?  Should
we have two shorter sessions?
