WAIKIKI BEACH, HONOLULU, HAWAII!
http://www.aace.org/conf/Cities/Honolulu
The exciting island of O'ahu, Hawaii, the home of Honolulu and Waikiki is
the site of ED-MEDIA 2003.
Whether your idea of fun is soaking up the sun on a pristine, white sand
beach or nightclubbing in Waikiki, hiking the trails or sampling some of
the fantastic Hawaiian Regional Cuisine, we know that you're going to enjoy
yourself on O'ahu.
Over 125 miles of beaches surround two magnificent mountain ranges
punctuated with a vibrant city, colorful little communities and highlighted
by dozens of the most scenic spots on earth. Far and away the most diverse
of the Hawaiian Islands, there's something here for everyone. No other
American city could offer you the opportunity to surf the world's biggest
waves, snorkel a lagoon, hike into a dormant volcano, golf at a dozen
championship courses, and catch the sunset from a five-star restaurant. All
within an hour's drive of your hotel room.
The island is a study in contrasts: green forests and glorious beaches;
fresh, clean bays, rolling hills, dramatic cliffs and sweeping vistas
counterpoised with the life of a vibrant city. From the hustle and bustle
of Chinatown to the rolling surf of O'ahu's spectacular North Shore, get
ready for an adventure.
For sheer variety of things to do, the Island of O'ahu is unparalleled.
Outdoor activities range from the calm (a cool moonlight walk along Waikiki
Beach), to the heart-stopping (hang-gliding off a thousand foot cliff in
Waimanalo). All 103 sandy beach sites on O'ahu are open to the public, and
nearly 600 of the state's top surfing spots are here, including Waimea Bay
and the Banzai Pipeline, considered among the most challenging surf breaks
in the world.

walled city of Tulum, believed by archeologists to be one of the most
important ceremonial and trade centers of the Mayan people. Cancun also
boasts many ecological wonders, with the nearby Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve
and the coves and caves of Xcaret.

>Call for Chapters:
>================================
>OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
>================================
>A book edited by Stefan Koch and published by Idea Group, Inc.
>
>Submission Deadline: December 31, 2002
>
>Introduction
>============
>
>Open source software development has generated increasing interest in the
>last years, both in academic circles and the software industry. Especially
>Linux, but also several other widely adopted projects like GNU project's
>utilities and libraries, the Perl and Tcl programming languages, and the
>Apache Web server have sparked the interest in the resulting products and
>their special form of development.
>
>Overall Objective of the Book
>=============================
>
>This book aims at publishing original academic work on Open Source
>software development. This wide area entails many facets, including the
>special development process performed by a large number of geographically
>dispersed programmers, community issues like coordination and
>communication, motivations of the participants, and also economic and even
>legal issues. Regarding the development process, whose adherence to
>software engineering standards and guidelines is often debated, there is
>still a scarcity of quantitative accounts on Open Source projects and
>communities. Especially the effort expended by all participants would be
>of high interest as a basis for comparisons to the efficiency of
>commercial development practices. Also, a mixture between more
>'traditional' approaches and the Open Source process have been proposed as
>being of very high potential, but have not yet been thoroughly explored.
>
>The ways in which the 'virtual teams' of Open Source development
>communities form, interact, communicate and coordinate also seem of
>particular interest. Several tools and technologies are in use to support
>these activities, and studies of their usage and efficiency in different
>projects are encouraged. In addition, psychological and social issues like
>motivational aspects, political behaviour and analogies with academic
>research could be explored. Other questions include the economic viability
>of the Open Source movement, business models, legal issues, its
>implications for the software industry for example regarding the
>implementation of open standards, and in special application areas like
>public administration or teaching.
>
>Possible Topics
>===============
>
>Recommended Topics include (but are not limited to):
>
>* Case studies of Open Source projects, their participants and/or their
>development process
>
>* Communication and coordination in Open Source projects: Organisational
>forms and tools/technologies used
>
>* Open Source software development processes
>
>* Adoption of software engineering practices in Open Source projects
>(during all phases of the life-cycle)
>
>* Software development processes as a mixture of traditional approaches
>and Open Source (e.g. 'gated open source communities')
>
>* Motivation of participants in Open Source projects
>
>* Hosting of Open Source projects
>
>* Business models for Open Source
>
>* Evolution of both Open Source software artefacts and the Open Source
>community overall
>
>* Legal issues of Open Source software
>
>* Implications of the Open Source movement for the software industry
>
>* Implications of the special attributes of Open Source software for usage
>in functional areas like public administration or teaching
>
>* Usage and adoption of Open Source software in different application
>areas and/or countries
>
>* Adoption of Open Source principles in other areas than software
>development
>
>Submission Procedure
>====================
>
>Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit a 2-5 page manuscript
>proposal on or before December 31, 2002, clearly explaining the mission
>and concerns of the proposed chapter. Authors will be notified by January
