The deadline for sending proposals (in English or in French, preferably by e-mail) is June 1st, 2000. A provisional program will be issued in September 2000.

If one doesn't arrive shortly, please let me know, or contact the organizers directly. I'd be happy to receive 2000 dues at the address below. If you'd like to send 2000 and 2001 dues in one go, that would be great, too. Dues are $15 p.a. ($7.50 for students). You don't have to be a member of SITM to take part in the triennial colloquium, but $15 a year isn't a lot to support a really great organization.
