BIBLISTare,
Kanske har ni tagit del av CFP:en inför konferensen NEXT 1.0 i
Karlstad nästa år? Ser ju spännande ut. Som det nedan citerade
brevet från Espen Aarseth till sändlistan HT visar, har dock
infotexten snotts rakt av från höstens konferens DAC 99 i Atlanta.
Visst förekommer sådant med jämna mellanrum, och hela världen går väl
inte under för det, men nog är det lite pinsamt att man inte ens
personaliserat texten någonting alls?

This brings back memories.. Haven't I read this before somewhere..?
Ah, yes. Here it is:

Fair enough, I suppose. But "unique"?
To quote from "The Princess Bride": "I do not think it means what you
think it means"...
