I'm not sure if this message got out the first time so I'm resending it. My
apologies if you received it twice. Please note the conferences do have
different names.

Planning for our NEBS Symposium 2000 began even before NEBS '99 was
finished. This year the symposium is being co-sponsored by U.S. West and
Underwriters Laboratories.  Together our objective is to bring the
conference to a new level by providing topics leading to a more in-depth
understanding NEBS tests and test methods (like the science behind
vibration testing),  providing a broader perspective of NEBS issues (RBOCs,
CLECs, international service providers, manufacturers) and covering hot
topics of interest to the NEBS community like TL9000 (we're even including
a QuEST sanctioned TL9000 seminar as one of the 8 half-day track options!).
Of course there will also be topics covering emc issues, fire, airborne
contaminants as well as project planning, test plans, customer requirements
and the like. We certainly believe that the US West / UL NEBS Symposium
2000 will provide a fresh new perspective of NEBS compliance issues facing
the industry while providing the practical information you can utilize
immediately in your daily activities.

It is unfortunate that a conflict has arisen with the planning of the Bell
Atlantic / Telcordia seminar but this was beyond our control. Although
there is some overlap in the basic principles that will be covered, I think
that you will find that there is enough to differentiate the two
conferences, allowing you to make a decision on which to attend based on
your current level of understanding of NEBS requirements and issues and
what you plan to take away from the conference. Our vision for the 2000
symposium reflects our desire to raise the level of understanding of NEBS
compliance issues across the industry as a whole.

Conference







Don,

     The details are on the Telcordia and UL web sites.  I believe the
intent of these are to be more of a conference than a seminar - interaction
between the manufacturers, test labs and RBOC's - as opposed to a training
session.

     http://www.800teachme.com/nebsconference.html
     http://www.ul.com/seminars/newseminar.htm

     I would prefer to attend both although, by "coincidence", they seem
to be on the same dates.  Can anyone shed some light onto the history
behind
this situation and if anyone might be changing their dates?

Thx,


Joe

     I couldn't help but notice that there are two NEBS 2000 conferences
this year - on the exact same dates.  UL and Telcordia/Bell Atlantic are
both sponsoring what appears to be the same event and, in some cases,
claiming the same representatives will be there.  Does anyone have any
insight to what's going on here?  I'm definitely going to one,
but..........

Thx,


Joe
