======================================================================
The European Smalltalk User Group invites you to the Smalltalk
Joint Event
11th ESUG Smalltalk Conference &
ESUG Research Track
Tuesday, August 25, - Friday, August 29, 2003
&
Camp Smalltalk
Saturday, August 23 - Sunday, August 24, 2001
Bled, Slovenia
http://esug2003.esug.org/
========================================================================
GENERAL INFORMATION
===================
For the 11th consecutive year, the European Smalltalk User Group
organizes a Smalltalk Conference to bring together Smalltalk users
from both academia and industry in a friendly atmosphere. As always
the attendants will enjoy tutorials, workshops and demonstrations on
various Smalltalk related subjects. New this year is that the talks
are scheduled primarily in the morning and that the afternoon focuses
on concrete collaborations between participants and workshops.
Continuing a strong tradition in organizing Smalltalk events for
Smalltalk practitioners, this year promises to be very exiting. ESUG
organizes a Smalltalk Joint Event comprised of Camp Smalltalk,
Advanced Seminars and a Research track:
- An official (and free) Camp Smalltalk, starting the week-end
before and continuing the rest of the week.
- The Advanced Seminars, where invited speakers and technical
presenters show concrete applications and research using Smalltalk.
- ESUG Research Track: an academic research track with
top-of-the-line program committee. A separate call for paper was
issued for this event, which is attached to this mail at the bottom.
All these exiting events will take place in the last week of August,
between the 23rd and 29th.
As always, we cannot make this work without contributions from the
actual Smalltalk practitioners. Therefore we invite people to submit
proposals to present papers (both academic or industrial,
technical
or experience report), or to exhibit. Together with invited speakers
and Campers this promises to be another exciting Smalltalk event.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROSPECTIVE SPEAKERS
=====================================
Prospective speakers must clearly explain the format they would like
to use (tutorial, experience report, workshop or demo). Each
proposal must include a valid e-mail address and an abstract of
around 200 words. All proposals have to be sent to Roel Wuyts
(address@hidden) AND Stephane Ducasse (address@hidden), in
plain ASCII pasted in the body of the e-mail (NOT attached).
Hot topics include, but are not limited to,
- web service applications using Smalltalk
- experience using eXtreme Programming
- distributed applications
- new Smalltalk implementations and optimizations
- Smalltalk Development Tools
- Language improvements or enhancements
Exhibitors or sponsors should directly contact the ESUG board for more
information (address@hidden).
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
=====================
The Conference takes place in Bled, in Slovenia. Bled is a city in the
north west of Slovenia, under mountains. It is near the Austrian

the Italian border, with the beautiful Italian city of Venice only
