TDWG 2003 Annual Meeting - Call for Papers

[Adrian Rissone]

This is a call for papers and posters for the TDWG Annual Meeting to be
held in October 2003 at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciencia, Oeiras,
Lisboa, Portugal. Please see the meeting web site for details:

http://www.tdwg.org/2003meet/TDWG2003.htm

Titles and abstracts (up to 200 words) should be submitted *as soon as
possible* to the Programme Coordinator (Adrian Rissoné
<A.Rissone at nhm.ac.uk>). Indicate whether you are willing to make your final
contribution available on the TDWG website (for example, as a PowerPoint
document). Presentations should not exceed 30 minutes. In previous years it
has been necessary to reduce this time to 20 minutes so please design
presentations to be shortened easily if required.

Please try to make your contribution relevant to the primary themes of the
meeting, which has special emphasis on Taxonomic Names, interoperability,
and the provision of data via the Web.

Papers or posters addressing collaboration and interoperability would be
welcome, papers on "my cool website" or "the status of informatics at my
institution" less so (unless directly addressing "lessons learned" and how
to move forward).

Looking forward to seeing you in Portugal, regards,

Adrian Rissone
