Hi folks. This arrived by e-mail just now, and is too late to be included in the June newsletter. Since there was a lot of round-table discussion on Mac OS X last month, I thought a few of you would be interested in this...

Hello User Group leaders,
Can you pass this information along to your members?
O'Reilly Mac OS X Conference Call for Participation-- Proposals Due June 14, 2002
O'Reilly & Associates invites the submission of tutorial and session proposals for the first-ever O'Reilly Mac OS X Conference, taking place at the Westin Santa Clara in Santa Clara, CA from September 30 to October 3, 2002.
We're looking for proposals that bring state-of-the-art Mac OS X content to programmers, developers, technical staff, and power users from Mac, Java, Web, and open source communities. Topics include migration issues, must-have tools, servers and networking, wireless, Project Builder, Apache, PHP, Perl, Terminal application, databases, languages, Development Frameworks, and iApps.
Submitting Proposals
Proposals need not be works of art--a thoughtful summary or abstract of the talk you plan to give is sufficient for consideration. We prefer outlines for tutorials. The proposal is what the conference committee uses to select speakers, so give the committee enough information to understand the topic you're covering.
Individuals and companies interested in making presentations, giving a tutorial, or participating in panel discussions are invited to submit proposals using this form: http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/macosx2002/create/e_sess
Proposals will be considered in two categories: tutorials and conference presentations (sessions).
Important Dates:
Proposals Due: June 14, 2002
Speaker Notification: June 20, 2002

Thanks for your help,
Marsee
