*********NIPS UPDATE********** Deadline for abstracts and summaries was May 30, 1989. We have now received over 460 contributions (almost 50% more than last year!). They are now logged in, and cards acknowledging receipt will be mailed next week to authors. Authors who have not received an acknowledgement by June 30 should write to Kathie Hibbard at the NIPS office; it's possible we got your address wrong in our database, and this will help us catch these things. Refereeing will take July. Collecting the results and defining a final program will be done in August. We plan to mail letters informing authors of the outcome during the first week of September. At that time, we will send all registration material, information about prices, and a complete program. If you haven't heard from us in late September, again please write, to help us straighten things out. **********NIPS UPDATE***********
