Organizing Committee: NTG: C.G. van der Laan T.A. Jurriens SGML: J. Maasdam J. Bleeker CALL for PAPERS SGML & TeX Conference Groningen, 31 Aug. 1990 This one-day conference starts -- after coffee, welcome etc. -- with a survey about the relationship between SGML and TeX, now and in the future. During the day we have two parallel streams (with 1/2 and 3/4 hour talks) and for those wandering around there will be a vendor booth, a book stand, a selling point for TeX `gadgets', and copying facilities for PD (TeX) programs and of course an information booth. The closing session will be about Electronic Publishing in the future with a wink to SGML and TeX. To celebrate the joint happening we will end with a nice `cocktail' party offered by Elsevier and Samson Publishers. Authors are invited to present a `paper' related to the theme -- SGML and TeX -- and Electronic Publishing in general. We also welcome papers which not exclusively address the preparation and printing phase of the lifecycle of a document, e.g., papers discussing the interaction between descriptive mark-up and database applications, reusable parts of documents, and not to forget papers dealing with descriptive mark-up and Hypertext. The conference language is Dutch (unless non-native) but transparencies are in English. TeX, LaTeX, Metafont (TUG-like) courses as well as SGML courses are held the days before and after. Conference and course program will follow in due time along with registration forms.
