Here's a list of the BOFs we know about to this date - each
has a little blurb and the name, rank, and serial number
of the sponsor.

Happy BOFing...





			Work in Progress BOF
			===================

This is an opportunity to get up and speak for 10 minutes
on your current work and, perhaps, present research results
that were too recent to be included in the conference program.

Individuals wishing to make a Work in Progress presentation
should bring a summary of their work, including your name
and presentation title, on a typed, double-spaced, single
sheet of paper for display prior to the session.  Or, preferably,
send it via email to  lab at world.std.com  .  Time slots will 
be assigned on a first come, first served basis.

			Standards BOF
			=============

The standards BOF will discuss the current status of worldwide
standardization activities. Events from recent standards meetings will
be reported. People currently involved in standards work are actively
encouraged to attend and communicate their perspective on recent
events. Peter Collinson, USENIX Standards Liaison, will be in the
chair, assisted by Stephe Walli, USENIX Standards Watchdog Committee
Report Editor. At the time of writing, several other standards people
have said they are coming. Should be fun.''

			GNU BOF
			=======

We hold this BOF to discuss the current technical status of the GNU
Project, to answer questions, and give Project volunteers a chance to
meet face to face those they have worked with via electronic mail.

Topics will be the status of the GNU Project,
new features on released programs, future plans, etc.
Thanx GNUs buttons are passed out to GNUers who have contributed
programs and documentation and have them introduce themselves.  The
floor is then opened for questions and technical discussion.
