Subject: Knock, knock - it's 'Good News' Time
Dear All,
Breaking News:
1. Tomorrow, 14 February, 2002 in Grenoble, France will be the Launching
Meeting of Villa Media [ for details please check our earlier message -
'The "Villa" will open' http://www.ifip.or.at/mail/msg00074.html ]. Jack
Lang, the French Minister of Education, and Romano Prodi, the President of
the European commission or his representative, and many other French and
European key figures will mark the occasion. IFIP will also be represented
and during the afternoon Prof. Raymond MOREL, Swiss IFIP GA representative
and TC 3 Vice-Chair, will be one of the distinguished panelists of a
Roundtable which will address the concept of learning seen either as an
objective transmission of content or as a process that will resort for a
large part to sensitiveness. The main issue to be addressed is in what way
do the objects and the tools of the digital mediation serve one or the
other of these approaches, or in what way do they make this distinction
obsolete?
IT'S NOT A COINCIDENCE that IFIP's TC 3 will conduct its annual meeting in
Grenoble at the same time and many of our TC members will be at the opening
of La Villa Media.
2. The IFIP Executive Director received a facsimile from the Office of the
Prime Minister of the Republic of Lithuania, dated 12 February 2002,
confirming that "the Prime Minister of the Republic of Lithuania, Mr.
Algirdas Brazauskas has expressed great support for the WITFOR forum which
will take place in Vilnius, Lithuania in 2003". The letter further says
that the Prime Minister assures the organizers of this IFIP event that "the
Government of Lithuania will issue necessary funding for organizational
needs of the Forum."
3. The President of the Slovenian Member society of IFIP, host of IFIP
Council and Related Meetings in Bled, 2-7 March 2002, confirmed that the
Slovenian Minister of the Information Society will welcome and meet with
the Council participants. other dignitaries will also join and we expect
interesting presentations on the state of IT research, applications and
industry in the country.
Stay tuned,
The Delivery Co.
P.S. Some of you complained that the Delivery Co. lets too many messages go
without a joke. To compensate you we intend to prepare "Your Friday's
Special" in the near future and if anyone itches to contribute you can send
your joke to the Delivery Co... but no sex jokes, PLEASE - our secretary is
British!

ACM / IEEE-CS May Offer Partial Travel Support for U.S. Participants
The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the IEEE Computer Society
(IEEE-CS) are both United States-based members of IFIP, the International
Federation for Information Processing. In support of a key IFIP activity
and as a service to their U.S. members, ACM, in cooperation with IEEE-CS,
has applied for a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to
provide partial travel support to 40 United States participants attending
the 17th IFIP World Computer Conference (WCC 2002).
The theme of WCC 2002 is "Information Technology for Our Times: Ideas,
Research and Application in an Inclusive World." It will be held in
Montreal, Canada, August 25-30, 2002.
There will be nine conference streams:
1. Foundations of Information Technology in the Era of Network and Mobile
Computing
(TCS 2002)
2. Software Architecture
3. Tele-learning
4. Communication Systems: The State of the Art
5. Information Systems: The E-Business Challenge

rail) up to a $750 maximum per attendee. A review panel consisting of
representatives from ACM and IEEE-CS will evaluate individual grant
applications. Applicants should provide the selection committee with the
following information:

States and travel by U.S. carriers. In addition, they will be required to
