Second SIG-Web meeting (Palo Alto, CA)
--------------------------------------
The first SIG-Web meeting, held 10/7/93 was a big success! Please see
<http://www.library.ucsf.edu/www/public/SIGWEB/index.html> for
details.

The second SIG-Web meeting will be held at the Xerox Palo Alto
Research Center (PARC) November 19th, from 2-5 PM (PST). See below for
directions.

November's meeting will focus on "success stories" of various SIG-Web
members; we'd like to hear about the network information services you're
providing, and also your success in making network information available
to your local community.

For those who can't make it, the meeting will (most likely) be
broadcast over the Internet Multicast Backbone (MBONE). (See
<ftp://venera.isi.edu/mbone/faq.txt> for details.)

Presentations will include:

- Benay Dara-Abrams will demonstrate Silicon Valley Public Access
Link, the community network for Santa Clara County.

- David Martin of UCSF will talk about the RedSage project, and other
things going on at the UCSF Center for Knowledge Management.

- Mitra will talk about Gopher access to Journal Graphics, and
providing commercial service to dial-up users.

- Steve Putz will show some World-Wide Web gateways to other
information sources he's developed at Xerox PARC. Larry Masinter
will demonstrate MOO-Gopher, a gopher interface from inside a mud.

- There will be an open session for people to get up and talk about
their servers and organizations.

If you'd like to make a presentation or give a demo, please send
mail to mcrae@ckm.ucsf.edu, saying how much time you'd like and
what kind of equipment you'll need.

Working Groups
It's been suggested that we devote the last 30 minutes or so of each
meeting split up into smaller groups. The last half-hour of this
meeting, we'll decide which subgroups we'd like to have.

Send questions, comments, suggestions to mcrae@ckm.ucsf.edu.

Requests to be added to/deleted from the sig-web mailing list should be
sent to sig-web-request@library.ucsf.edu.
