Hello all IMAGE, ALLBASE, and OMNIDEX users:

An email I got tonight reminded me I told the SIGIMAGE
Executive Committee (SIEC) that I would post the final revised
SIGIMAGE agenda for SIG3000-00 "Database Day" on 3000-L
on Monday of this week...  of course that is already two days
ago....    oh, well:  sorry;  usual "too many things" excuses....

Anyway, attached find plain text agenda.  There were a couple
relatively last-minute changes, and so it "diverges" a little from
what is still posted on the Interex SIG3000 web page....  But
hopefully not so much that anyone will feel aggrieved (y'all get
to sleep 30 minutes longer in the morning (after attending
SIGWEB until fairly late the night before) )....     :-)

Also note that I have included the SIGHPSQL (formerly
SIGALLBASE) and SIGOMNIDEX session times on this sked;
so (having received no objections) this is the current sked for
all of "Database Day" at SIG3000 (HPSQL & OMNIDEX times
are unchanged)....  but:  The details of what will be discussed
during SIGHPSQL and SIGOMNIDEX I of course leave to the
leaders of those sessions....

EXCEPTION:   Interex web site says SIGCONSULT dinner
from 18:00 - 20:00 and then SIGCONSULT from 20:00 - 22:00.
BUT:  Next level down "SIGCONSULT dinner info" says they
will meet just from 18:30 - 20:30-or-so at a restaurant.  Last
times sound like the more plausible ones...  but it's not up to
me to make that call....   Sooo....:  I avoid making a mistake
in this case by leaving SIGCONSULT off this agenda...    :-)
