Dear TC6 members, I prepared a final document with the TC6 WG aims and scope, taking into consideration the comments I received from Peter Radford, Arun Iyengar and Harry Perros. Performance and QoS appear in a number of WGs but I hope that it is clear in the document that they relate to different levels of the network. Anyhow, I think that a complete separation of aims and scope in the 9 WGs is difficult to achieve. There are always border areas that lead to some overlapping. Please send me your final comments, if any, until Sunday evening (4/2/01). If no comments received I will consider the document approved within TC6 and I will submit it, by e-mail, to the IFIP Technical Assembly next week. Best regards Augusto Casaca

Information exchange on a technical as well as on a cultural level will be essential for planning the future odyssey for electronic publishing. This information exchange between publishers, researchers, academics and professional information specialists has been at the core of the ICCC/IFIP series of ELPUB conferences from the beginning. This is a strong argument for participating in ELPUB 2001 in Canterbury! ELPUB2001 is the 5th in a series of annual international conferences on Electronic Publishing. The objective of ELPUB2001 is to bring together researchers, managers, developers, and users working on the issues related to electronic publishing for public, scientific and commercial applications. The conference will continue the tradition of the previous conferences which took place in Great Britain in 1997, Hungary in 1998, Sweden in 1999 and Russia in 2000. The focus is on electronic publishing for academic and commercial purposes and for the general public. We welcome speakers on non-technical and technical developments. PROGRAMME Submitted scientific papers, presentations of prototypes, operational systems, and associated experiences. Three main topics with several subsections are addressed: I. New Publishing Models XML and further standards, interchange networks, distributed systems, document input, document delivery, e-books and new output media. Global co-operation in publishing, scientific demands (Citing, Linking), education and training, user needs and user profiles. II. Digital Libraries Architecture, knowledge management, multimedia in digital libraries, multi-lingualism, navigation and information retrieval. New library services, content management, user interfaces, cataloguing and archives III. E-Commerce for Publishing Copyright saving and security systems, new business models, author-publisher-librarian: costs & payments; legal issues. Each topic has two tracks: 1. Technical focus 2. Human and cultural focus All contributions will be published in the Proceedings. NB. The list of topics is not meant to be exhaustive and submissions on any topic within the overall conference theme will be considered.

The Old Town district is actually a medieval city with a well preserved original grid of streets. The huge central square, Europe's largest, seems the last stage in the perfection of the art of city planning in the Middle Ages. Wawel Hill in Krakow, a must to visit for foreign tourists is a micro-cosmos of Polish history and culture. From the 11th century on Poland's monarchs took up their residence here, in the Royal Castle, and they were both crowned and buried in the Wawel Cathedral. Krakow, the proud capital of a mighty kingdom for centuries, is now a city of a truly European status. A genuine pearl in the vicinity of Krakow is the 700-years old Wieliczka Salt Mine, one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites: http://www.cyf-kr.edu.pl/wieliczka/ http://www.unesco.org/whc/sites/32.htm In 1995, the Cultural Council of Ministers of the European Union passed a decision granting the title of the Capital of European Culture for the year 2000 to nine cities. Krakow was nominated as one of the first laureates, in Central Europe along with Prague.
