The Machine Learning List is moderated. Contributions should be relevant
to the scientific study of machine learning. Please send submissions for
distribution to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For requests to be added, removed, or to
change your email address, send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To keep mailings to a manageable size, please keep submissions brief.
For meeting announcements, highlight the meeting Web site and event
goals but omit information such as the program committee and talk
schedules. Only first calls for papers/participation and brief change
of deadline announcements may be included. The ML List moderator

Subject: New ML List format
In this issue of the Machine Learning List, we introduce a new, briefer
format that contains only the essential information about conferences,
special issues, and similar events. We hope our readers will find it
easier to find items that interest them, and that they can then go to
the relevant URL to get additional information. We will continue to
include longer announcements about open positions.
Sincerely, -Pat Langley
